Hello!

[FfyddGobaithCariad]

Hi there! I'm a new Christian and decided to join the forums to look for fellowship. I love my friends, but they are not Christians (well, most of them). I also love my church family, they are so warm, compassionate and kind, and you can really see God in their lives. However, it is a small church and there aren't many young, single people there.

Just to introduce myself. I'm 21, just finished my degree. I have a background in church, but come from a non-Christian household and fell away from church in my teens. I met a wonderful Christian friend who, seeing I was seeking, helped guide me back to Christ over the past year.

My username is FfyddGobaithCariad which is the Welsh translation of "faith, hope, love", one of my favourite Bible passages (1 corinthians 13)

Welcome to Christian Forums! I hope you will enjoy fellowshipping and sharing your faith here, and that you will stay for a very long time and provide beautiful words of truth for The Lord! .. and I'm curious, what major field/s of study did you achieve in your degree?

Croeso, chwaer! (I don't speak Welsh — had to look that up (and I hope it's right!) — but I do speak Cornish, which is very similar.)

Your church family sounds lovely. I also don't have many other young, single people in mine, but just to have the support and love of others who are on this same path, whatever their age or situation, is more precious than anything, isn't it? Especially when you're from a non-Christian background yourself (same here). It's wonderful to know we are all one great family in Christ as God's children, wherever we come from.

Hope you enjoy being part of the forums! God bless.

Greetings and welcome to the site! The singles Forum is fairy active, so I'm sure you should be able to make some new friends there. But don't forget us married folks either. Most of us are not allowed to post in single only threads, so if you want our input as well try posting things over on our side too.

God bless, and welcome once again!

Hi... Welcome to CF! Congratulations on your degree and glad you joined us. Looking forward to your input.

Hi everyone, thank you for the kind words words and welcome.

@Serving Zion my degree is a joint honours degree in Mathematics and Welsh. Yes, I know it seems like a random combination (I get that reaction a lot haha) but it was the perfect combination for me to pursue a career in teaching.

@Kerensa, da iawn! Well done for the Welsh. Wow, I only have ever met one other person who speaks Cornish. I'd love to study the celtic languages. I have studied some early Welsh (6th century) which is when Brittonic began to split into distinct dialects (Welsh, Cornish etc). I find them fascinating.
You are very right about age etc not mattering. I have a friend who is 30years my senior! There is so much to learn from people at all different stages of life and from all backgrounds and situations. I love hearing everyone's stories and just listening to anything they want to share. It's a true blessing to be in their company.

Thank you all so much for your kind words of welcome. I look forward to chatting with you in the forums!
