Yay it's fun to be single!

I had almost this situation come up earlier this week.  I was talking to a 
youth group leader who asked me what show I would do for her kids.  Almost 
immediately we came up with the idea of teaching the youth group how to twist 
and sending them out to the nursing homes, children's homes, etc.  We talked 
about how kids loved to be involved in helping other people.  My thought now 
is - so do singles - some of us who don't have kids love to be around other 
people's kids once in a while.  Also, it's much easier to go to somewhere 
like a nursing home and visit with people if you have something to break the 
ice, such as balloons.  

I don't know how many singles you're talking to, but this would work with a 
smaller group - just an idea.  I know something that encourages me as a 
single person is that I can make a difference.
