Church attendance amongst Britain's youth may be
dwindling but young Christians are turning to the Internet in droves
to find love.
Christian Connection, an online matchmaking service, said it
has signed up nearly 4,000 members since last October and at least
five weddings are now planned.
The Web site offers "an opportunity for Christians from
all denominations to meet, mix and match", according to its
homepage.
The statement quoted one satisfied member, identified only as
Anne, as hoping the man she met through the site might be her
"Mr Right".
"I have been blessed to meet a wonderful man who at the very
least is now a great friend," she said. "I had a bit of faith
that I would eventually meet someone but not by sitting at home
waiting patiently."
