Our Men

George is a 53 yo, 5'6", 165 lb, gay man with white hair and moustache, who is retired, and lives in Whitmire, SC.

I am considered handsome and cute by many.

I am a born again, spirit-filled Christian gay man, an ordained minister, who is proud to tell anyone who asks me if I am Christian that I am. I don't argue my faith with anyone, as no one has the right to judge another but the One and Only Who created us, God.

I don't smoke, don't use recreational drugs, but might have a glass of wine or a rare mixed drink every once in awhile. I won't judge those who do either, but just not for me or what I feel God wants for me.

I am seeking a man who loves the Lord first and would like to develop a wonderful friendship with me, and hopefully grow that friendship into a wonderful, loving relationship built on love, honesty, trust, commitment, companionship, romance and communication. I am seeking a partner, my soulmate and my lover for life. Someone who can communicate his feelings and be open with his love for me as I will be for him. I hope to hear from those seeking a real genuine lifelong relationship.

John is a 28 yo, identical twin from Scranton, PA.

I graduated from Nyack College (NY) with a major in
Youth Ministry where I am still active as the Youth Director, though my church does not know about my lifestyle.

I have come out to most of my friends and my family (mom and brother).

I'm a big movie fan, and love live theater.

One of my passions is acting. I feel that this is a ministry that needs to be a part of any church, if that church wants to grow. I feel that I may be in that church to become an advocate for the whole church about the homosexual lifestyle, though I do feel like Christ at the Mount of Olives wanting the cup to pass from me, but Christ will give the strength I need to carry on.

I have been alone for about 9 years, and slowing working on accepting being alone.

I'm looking for friends first, hopefully to move into a possible LTR. Being single allows me the possibility of relocating.

Tim is a 43 yo, 5' 7", 135 lb gay man with brown eyes and brown thinning hair (oh who am I kidding, I'm balding) from Roanoke, VA.

I have been in official ministry since 1985 and formerly worked for a non-profit agency primarily doing education and counseling (HIV/STD, high-risk, life skills, etc). I am now employed with mental health support services agency. Yes, I am HIV+ so please be accepting of this. This however does not define me, though sadly, my living with HIV exposes me to stigma and rejection on a regular basis.

I am non-denominational now, but most of my church life has been in the Pentecostal (Assemblies of God) and some Baptist churches. I have also ministered in an inter-denominational GLBT church.

I enjoy reading, surfing the web, gardening/landscape, small crafts/woodworking, working on my house, my pets, relaxing at home most of the time. I do enjoy going out sometimes, however would much rather go out in the company of my partner. I am not much into the "scene" so to speak. Drama is for the stage.

Book stores, thrift stores, flea markets, yard sales are so much fun. I'm a very good cook. I enjoy sitting by the fire on a snowy day/night. I watch very little TV, however I enjoy HGTV, PBS, Bravo, Discovery Health, Gaither Home Coming programs, crime/forensics programs, etc.

I am a romantic, and wish to find someone with such a nature. I love my family, though they live several hours away.

Sitting by a lake for hours, taking in nature or fishing, going for a long drive is as satisfying to me as any other activity. I love to cook out on a grill. In many ways I am a kid at heart. I have never been a big sports fan, however, if my partner is, that is fine. I love holidays, especially Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Education is very important to me. I have obtained my B.A. as well as my
M. Div., but am a very practical person. I am always wanting to learn more. I cannot say I am an ultra conservative as I once was. I would say I am middle of the road politically and progressive in my theology.

Generally I am quite shy and tend to do better in small groups, but have no fear of speaking to hundreds from a platform.

Making a home is a very important goal of mine. I want to find my final partner. I seek my soulmate. My attraction varies when it comes to ethnicity, it just depends. I tend to be attracted to those who are thinner, height & weight proportionate and not taller that 6' 1". I have never been attracted to the leather/bear scene.

I am seeking someone younger than me (under 40 to even in their 20's), however I will not be a provider. My past two partners were my age. My partner must be self-sufficient and willing to work. I am far from perfect, but do not wish to share my life with someone who does not have a sense of spirituality, nor do I want to spend my life with someone who is dependent on alcohol or someone who feels the need to abuse verbally or physically. Monogamy is a must.

I cannot relocate, but will certainly open my home and life to someone who would relocate. I cannot provide for someone to travel from another country.

Jim is a 44 yo gay Christian male, father of one and a grandfather, from North Western Illinois.

I have recently renewed my walk with Christ and I am still working through my issues of being a homosexual. I am confidant that Christ is my Shepherd, and I am learning to make Him the center of my life. I was saved when I was 6 years old, and left the church when I was 22 because of my fear of rejection. My family never gave up on me, thank God. I am conservative and belong to a conservative church, but the pastor instructed me that I am not alone, and that God loves me and has never left me :)

I retired from the Air Force as an officer. I am in health care management and love leading.

I am Alumni from Northern Illinois University and soon to be from Western Illinois University. I am also a Registered Nurse. I am HIV positive.

I love to spend time with my family, friends and dogs. I love the outdoors, camping, hiking, going out to eat and most of all, having fun (good laughs and humor).

I am looking for a gay Christian male friend and mostly a soul mate who loves to have fun, is Christ-centered and not perfect, but strives to love Christ and do good because of their love for Him.

Andrew is 28 yo and lives in Iowa.

I'm Christian, currently non-denominational. I was raised Lutheran and lean toward more conservative denominations (i.e. Baptist, Catholic) but currently am between churches so I don't really know what to call myself. :)

I'm a friendly, caring, romantic, sensitive, and affectionate person who is searching for his soulmate. I've struggled with coming to grips with my sexuality and being a Christian and at this point, from the research I've done, I believe that I need to have a celibate relationship, but otherwise, the same type of romantic relationship (love, commitment, romantic gestures, affection) just without the sex part.

I have a wide variety of interests but really enjoy watching movies, spending time with friends, music (both playing and listening), and being outdoors.

Michael is 52 yo, 5'11", 185 lb with blonde hair and blue eyes, who is clean shaven, from Tennessee but will be relocating to Roanoke, VA within the next two or three months.

I just bought a very run down drive-in theater that I hope to get in running shape to open in spring. My interests include movie theater equipment, old cars, karaoke, fishing and camping.

I am Baptist in faith for the most part. I believe in God.

I'm interested in a LTR with someone who isn't afraid to work and has the same interests as I do. I prefer someone average to slim who must be willing to relocate at some point.

Ivan is 39 yo, 5'11", 175 lb with dark hair and hazel eyes from Hudsonville, MI.

I'm a straight-acting jock type of guy, leading a healthy life style, don't get into drugs, smoking, or alcohol (though having a social drink now and then can be fun too), clean-cut, not your typical "gay" guy. I go out of my way to make you feel special, but the down side of that, sorry to say, is that some people tend to take advantage of that fact, but at least I know I'm doing what I feel is right.

I'm very outgoing, personable, yet laid back too, level headed, down to earth, in-shape, intelligent, masculine, love to have fun and make you laugh, but most important - to make you feel special! I'm usually always up to something, and that something is going to make you say: "I can't believe you just did that ... awww". Yes, that's me in a nutshell.

We're all on God's earth for a short time, and have to make the best of it using the gifts/talents given to us for God's glory. By God's grace I am thankful that my faith has been a strong characteristic of mine while growing up in a country/farm environment, in a Christian home, community, school, church, and teaching in a Christian school for most of my career. It will be that faith that will be the fabric of a relationship that holds us together.

I tend to fall on the romantic side. I'm a very caring, giving guy, putting you first before myself. I like taking care of that "special person", going on trips, living each day to the best, and when and if problems come, cause they do here in the real world, that we'll try and work them out, and not give up on a whim!

I am not looking for any kind of quick fix, but instead someone who possesses the foundations for building a solid friendship and more, someone that will not only make me smile, but can also have a smile that is "out of this world" and a grin that just makes me think what you are up to. Someone that I can't wait to see time and time over again.

I'm especially attracted to the younger crowd, smooth, fit, lean or muscular types who are smart, witty and outgoing, even preppy, always like to look good, but yet not afraid to get dirty, straight-acting, upbeat, talented, handsome, and hopefully not a smoker.

There's NOTHING like knowing that when you wake up, you know you're loved, but more than that, you feel cherished, and special beyond words ... "wink"

AJ is 35 yo, 5'8", 170 lb from Atlanta, GA.

I'm posting this ad in hopes of meeting a great guy with whom I have a lot in common. I like guys that are good-hearted, spiritual, dependable, affectionate, hardworking, not too materialistic and versatile. A guy that believes in romance, affection and closeness is what I really desire. I also desire someone who has a firm belief in God and Christianity like myself. I believe that is the bond that keeps a loving relationship together.

Some words to describe me would be honest, clean-cut, shy, slightly off beat, creative and devoted.

Some of my hobbies include painting, other arts and crafts, horror movies, bowling, walking, reading, concerts and watching tv sitcoms and entertainment news/info. Music is a huge love of mine. I really love singers with strong voices and a big range, especially women. I like a little bit of everything from pop to rock to country to gospel to r&b to dance.

I like guys that are slim to average build. My preferable age bracket would be the late 20s to the late 30s, but there are exceptions. This depends on the individual and how we click. My primary attraction is towards Black and other men of color.

If you are interested in talking and getting to know me, feel free to respond. Until then, take care.

Roben is 27 yo, 5'11", 33" waist, from Pakistan City (Lahore).

I am a loyal, sincere and honest, average guy. My health is good. I am HIV Negative.

I'm Christian - my denomination is Catholic. I attend Church regularly, and my faith is important to me.

I am seeking a man, 35 - 65 years old, for a long term relationship. I need a man whose faith is the most important thing to him, someone who will be honest and true with me. I will take care of him with love and respect.

Roy is a 42 yo, 5'11", physically toned African American, with black hair cut close, and dark brown eyes, from Barnesville, GA.

If your dream is to take a romantic walk along the beach into the sunset, to experience a life of happiness with your lover, your best friend, your partner, this ad is for you.

I am a very handsome, fun-loving Christian guy who loves jazz and traveling, and always value time with family and friends.

I enjoy attending sporting events, especially football and basketball games. I like movies and plays, and enjoy all types of music. I love shopping anywhere from Saks to Target, and I collect model airplanes.

I am United Methodist, and believe in God the Father, and that Jesus Christ died for all.

What I value most in a person is honesty and the ability to communicate well, someone who has a caring heart, and a loving spirit. I am looking for that guy who loves to travel, and can enjoy a quiet evening at home. Being monogamous is important and respectful. Confidence is a very important character to have. If you are someone who is happy with being yourself, you can appreciate others. Humor is a great thing to have. Life cannot be all too serious. I am not into anyone who is unsure or who is into playing games.

Frans is a 170 cm, 67 kg, 45 yo gay Christian man, with brown eyes and black hair, from Indonesia whose English is not very good, but he is anxious to meet his mate. I have tried to help with this ad, but where I'm not sure what he means, I have left it as he wrote it.

I hope you understand. Yesus is my Savior for almost 15 years. I tried to stop being gay, and that very struggle in me, since time to time makes me understand to be gay is not wrong. But I don't play sex anymore since Yesus came to my heart. I read the Bible many times and try to understand, also the Word of God. All the time I put in my mind and to practise to really live to help people and counsel some of my friends. I try to help people to receive Yesus as Savior. There is no way without Yesus Christ.

I'd like to find a gay partner and make friends with them. I want to learn also about your program for the Bible with all the gay people in the world, maybe one day I can help gay people in my country of Indonesia.

My interests: reading the Bible, books and watching movies....also easy to meet new friends.

I have a group community after Church and we always talk about good things and share good things with each other to help people who need it.

Jesus is my Savior and my Everything!

Danny is a 6 ft, 148 lbs, 40 yo gay Christian man, with blue eyes and brown hair, with both ears and nipples pierced, who is very active in Covenant Community Church in Birmingham, AL. He is an usher and greeter, and sings tenor in the choir. He also runs the overhead projector for the Sunday night services.

I have been HIV positive for 15 years and am doing great with only one pill at night. I see the doctor every six months and am an HIV/AIDS tester. I'm on the staff of four retreats for HIV/AIDS in AZ and AL, where I run the dining hall, snack table and check the rooms after everyone leaves.

I love to cook, clean, work with flowers, love to camp, hike, long walks, biking, roller blading, and road trips.

I am looking for someone between 35 and 55 who loves God like I do, and who will be by my side through the good times and bad ones, someone who will go to the doctor with me, and not leave me because I have HIV. I need someone who is not a drug user. It's okay if you drink socially but nobody with addictions please. It doesn't matter if you smoke. Race is not an issue. I am a lover, not a fighter. I will give all that I have to make it work. I am on a fixed income and willing to relocate to be with a partner.

I hope to hear from you.

Jimmy is a 45 yo, 6'2", Black (Latin, Native American, Black) openly Christian/gay male from New Jersey with his head in the clouds and feet on the ground.

I am pretty laid back, unpretentious, and real. I think I'm a pretty nice guy who's undeniably human, while being a partaker in His divine nature.

I am grounded in my faith, skilled in the Word of God, a musician/choreographer heading performance art ministry in New Jersey.

I operate in prophetic annointing.

I seek other Christian/gay men for fellowship, and hope to find kindred spirits here to add to the full life I am already blessed with.

Trey is a 31 yo white male who resides in Georgia, USA. He is 5'10", 155 lbs, with brown hair and eyes, and a killer southern accent.

I am open to meeting some great Christian friends, as I tend to be a bit shy and reserved until one gets to know me.

I would certainly not be opposed to finding a life long mate, but I am not settling for less than what God has intended for me. I used to have a whole list of standards of what I was looking for in a mate, but those were mine and it has never worked out. I can tell you the only area I will not compromise is that it must be a guy who is interested in a Christ-centered relationship. I am not hung up on religion, but I am determined that my mate and I must want to put Christ first, and have a relationship with Him, and then with each other.

As for the guy, as I said, I am pretty much letting God lead on that. The only thing is that age-wise it should be somewhere in my range, not too much younger or older (+ or - five to ten years-ish I guess).

As for me, I am a romantic, caring individual. I spent years struggling and wanting acceptance. The truest happiness I have known has been in these past two years when, like the prodigal son, I returned to where I belong (it really is true that the Father runs to meet you.)

I do not expect perfection, as I certainly cannot offer it. I am open to people all over this great country, as God knows no distance. Look forward to hearing from you.

Jim is a 53 yo HIV+ gay male, who is enjoying an extended stay in Georgia, USA until summer of 2008 at which time he will start travelling again.

I am looking to meet others who may be interested in sharing life experiences and more through email/penpal communication.

I am also looking for my mate but that is not essential to our sharing any friendship. It is also possible for me to visit and I am able to relocate.

I live with my former partner - we are now best friends.

Please feel free to visit my personal website at www.thedingoman.com for more about my life and how I have lived with HIV. I also live with prostate cancer and end stage kidney disease but I continue to live life fully.

Todd is 41 yo, just under 6 feet tall, about 238 lbs, with brown hair and blue eyes, from Indianapolis, IN.

I consider myself educated, funny, and very average. I am not a partier, am a non-smoker and very minimal drinker. I could go to the gym more often than I do.

I have a good job, an average car, and my own apartment. I absolutely do no illegal drugs. I care for people in a hospital and cannot have any split second judgments crowded by drug use.

I attend church weekly. I am an Apostolic Pentecostal. I do attend a GLBTS Pentecostal Apostolic church in Indianapolis. I try to live a better life now than I ever have.

I don't really have a specific ''type'' of guy I am looking for. I do know physical attraction is part of it but the heart is what matters most. That's where God looks. Why should I be more critical the He?

I am looking for a friend and searching for a soul-mate. That may sound cheesy but aren't we all seeking someone to grow older with? I want a relationship not based just on sex. I am quite open minded, non-judgmental. I want more than anything to have a normal life with someone, and just be happy and be who I am. I want a partner to live together with forever. A life mate. Someone to walk beside me. Not be under my feet nor lord over me. I rarely meet a stranger. My motto is: If you never talk to strangers, how are you ever gonna meet a new friend?

I hope to hear from you soon.

Michael is 23 yo charismatic guy from Lexington, KY.

I am very mature and do not have many friends that are my age. I have served, in some capacity or another, in ministry since I was 14 years old. I have played many roles in the church but my true callings are music ministry (I was a Worship Leader in two churches in Lexington), and Missions (at 14 yo I was a Mission Representative for my church and served in Russia and Jamaica).

Other things I like are to cook, read, play music, and of course, to travel!

I do not want to settle on simply finding "A" man but finding "MY" man. I believe that God delights in all my ways and wants me to have the guy He has picked for me.

I want a guy who is willing to wait on sex, and who chases after the Father's heart. In addition, my man should be romantic and sweet, and have a genuine caring for other people and their situations - someone who is giving rather than self-centered.

I also like friends too! So if you are just someone looking for a friend, let me know!!! I am always willing to meet new people! I hope to hear from ya!!!

Cliff is 29 yo (1978), 175 cm, 68 kg, from Brazil, living in Japan for studies abroad.

I am now mastering computer science and by 2008, will be starting my PhD at Tokyo Institute of Technology - Japan.

I enjoy knowing cultures and speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, French and Japanese. I am finally able to express myself in Japanese, having adapted to living in that society. It has been quite an adventure to be on the other side of the world coping with so many differences.

I was raised Jehovah's Witness, baptized by the age of 13 in Brasilia, holding privileges in the congregation, being a ministerial servant, and giving talks to neighboring circuits.

I spent many years struggling with my religion and sexuality until finally, at age 26, I went to Japan to find the love of my life, and stopped going to church for prohibiting me to find a lover of the same sex.

After many years the struggles are over. I eventually came out to my family, but I have not yet found that special lover with Christian principles to share my life. So, I am still single and looking forward to finding someone around my age or younger, for a serious monogamous relationship. It doesn't matter where, since I plan to relocate to a gay marriage supporting country, such as Canada.

I want a guy who stands for moral principles, is well-educated, good looking, and comes from a good background.

I pray to God to find someone deserving of my love to share life. I plan to have kids in the future, building a lovely family with my husband.

If you identify with me and want to know more, feel free to write. At least we may become friends. :)

Mark is a 6'2", 170 lb, 27 yo man, with green eyes and blond hair, from Richmond, VA.

I've been actively involved in the church since age 15, and struggled with the whole sexual orientation ordeal for a long time. I am coming to terms of accepting it and realising that God loves me the way I am.

I'd like to meet people my age, and just make friends at first... then we'll see. If you're from the area, that's much better. I don't do so well with long distance types.

I'm very laid back and real. I don't like to hide things, but I also don't do well with confrontation. I LOVE music (jazz, R&B, gospel), I sing, and write some. Also, God is a huge part of my life and I couldn't do without the peace he gives me.

I believe I'm fun and adventurous, sarcastic at times, and (for the good or the bad) I like to think things over and over and over... so sometimes I chill, sometimes I like long deep conversations.

Hit me up! :-)

Physically I'm a fat man. I'm also hairy. Sort of a giant gerbil. hahaha.

I am involved in my church with a couple of ministries and
I have a loving small group that I cherish. I'm seriously involved with God. There is much I don't get, but I know
my Abba loves me, and I him. There is much in me that needs changing but I trust God to change me according to His good purpose.

I have a degree in Performing arts and one in culinary arts. I'm currently between careers. I have tons of baggage. I'm learning to deal with it and learning about God's grace and goodness in the process. After all, "the path of the righteous is like the morning sun that keeps on rising until the day is perfect"

I struggled with the whole homosexuality issue for a long time. I am HIV positive.

I am very friendly and personable. The best moments for me are those in which I'm sharing good food with good friends.

I'm looking for a like-minded person to share my life.

Dirk is 27 yo from South Africa.

I am still studying and enjoying my own country, so I am not in search of American or European citizenship. LOL

I am an extremely HAPPY person, like to laugh, mostly at myself. I am a COMPLETE scatterbrain, so there is usually a lot to laugh about.

Trust and honesty are extremely important to me.

I acquired the nasty habit of smoking and I drink socially. I have perfected the art of indoor activities and in the process have become quite a romantic: like infront-of-the-fireplace-philosphies, watching movies with marshmallows etc.

I like to try out new things, so I am trying my hand at the Great Outdoor - camping and hiking. Might require some assistance, though.

I have always been Christian, but only recently became 'involved' with my faith and God. He has truly become the center of my life and being.

I have been single and celibate for a very long time. I have HUGE commitment issues, because my trust and honesty have been betrayed many times. I hope that one day someone will be able to change that.

I would like to correspond with anyone who sees each day as a blessing and an opportunity to discover more about themselves, and our Creator.

I enjoy the outdoors, gospel music, fishing, camping, talking about Jesus, cooking - Lord have mercy, I just enjoy a lot of things.

Travis is a 5'11" 30 yo man from Eastern Oregon.

I'm a Catholic, converted from being an agnostic in 2001. This was before I discovered that I was gay. I'm struggling with combining my love for the Lord and my sexuality.

I have a dry wit, but still chuckle at dumb jokes.

I have a neurological/genetic disease called Neurofibromatosis--it causes learning disabilities and nerve tumors, among other things. Along with ADD, and other similar things, I'm bipolar. This has caused delays in my education. (It took me 10 long years to get my Associates Degree.) Right now I'm in a dead-end job, so relocating for the right guy won't be a problem.

I'm looking for a witty man who is masculine, yet loving. I'm not big into the physical part of a relationship. I like the emotional aspect more. I'd be perfectly willing to remain celibate my entire life, but I am open to "relations."

I hope to hear from a good Christian man. :)

Philip Martorella is a 52 yo easy going, down to earth, faithful, lovable, compassionate guy who is searching for a friend for companionship within the state of Rhode Island.

My faith, as a Catholic person, is very strong. I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, and in Jesus Christ. I will always retain my love for God and for the Lord Jesus. It's important to be well steeped in the Word and never to be intimidated by any of the scriptures whether in the Old Testament or the New Testament. There is so much truth in it; and, after having interpreted it in great depth, there is no reason to shun certain verses that some people may misinterpret and become angry or intimidated by the strength or power of the message. Having a strong faith and sharing God's love is most important for our well being and keeps us pure in our hearts. Once we have that purity, we cannot be led astray. We can use our faith and our love also in our friendships and in our relationships as long as we conduct ourselves properly and never do anything that is abusive or impure.

I am a musician by occupations and my hobbies are drawing and painting.

I'm looking for an easy going, healthy, sensitive, young man who is in his late twenties to late fourties or even early fifties, to take nature walks and/or travel with, attend concerts, movies, go to cafes, bookstores, go to the beach, dine at restaurants, etc.

If a relationship should result eventually, I would like it to be very pure, clean and safe; therefore, I'm obviously not into anything that may be regarded as impure activity of any kind. My slogan is humorously entitled: "Pure and Chased". I'm not really "chased", it's only an intended pun.

If interested, please reply with your photo attached if you will".

Target913 is a 5'10", 180 lb, 43 yo, Conservative white male, with short blonde hair, who lives in Pennsylvania.

I was born and raised in the Catholic Church and it continues to be a very influential part of my life. I find Pope Benedict to be a fascinating person and like the direction that he is taking the church in. My spiritual life is very important to me and I have been a celibate man for quite some time.

My main interests are weightlifting and exercise, urban hiking, nature photography, and English mysteries.

I am gainfully employed and lead a structured life.

I am looking for pen pals from anywhere and any age. I don't believe in making a laundry list of likes and dislikes or expectations from you. We'll see what happens.

I am not looking for a boyfriend - just a friend to write to and maybe meet up one day. I don't believe in gay marriage or men living together. Just my opinion - you don't have to agree with it. I am not "out" and never plan to be. It isn't who I am. So if you are a masculine man looking for the same, drop me a line. Willing to exchange photos if we hit it off.

I am a Christian, now a member of a Methodist Church. My path has been long spiritually - Jewish, Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, now Methodist. Christians have hurt me, as well as my family.

I have a quick wit, very intelligent on most issues, and am told I am a great conversationalist.

I have been rather reluctant to try posting an ad again as in my nearly half a century on this planet, I have yet to date, as well as have a serious relationship. I feel like the proverbial old dog who can't learn anything new. I may not be perfect, but if given a chance I hope to surprise you as well as myself.

I just want to be able to say, "I have someone in my life", and that has seemed like for me the "Impossible Dream".

If we start out as friends that would be great. If it leads to a LTR, WOW!!!

Keiko is a 28 yo gay rights activist and Christian from Helsinki, Finland.

I was born in Russia and often visit there.

I am still optimistic that there are real men in the world that aren't afraid of intimacy, and find monogamy attractive rather than restrictive. Yes, I want my partner to be my best friend and to both like and love each other. Relationships may take "work" but I believe if they're real and right, it's FUN :)

I would love to meet someone to share my life with, not to "complete" me as I'm already complete and happy. I'll wait for you.

Robert Johnson is a well-educated, married gay Christian male, 67 yo, who is in search of a gay male "email and IM partner" only. I am not looking for a sexual relationship.

I have never had sex with another male due to my covenant to remain faithful to my wife, which was made when I was young because I felt I had to get married if I wanted a "normal" life. I was terrified of living my life alone and had no one else to talk to, so I chose the only option I knew for me.

I am a Christian with an active faith in Jesus Christ and know that I am, and always have been, by no accident, gay. God has blessed my life and I am grateful to Him, and I want to serve Him.

I believe that I am good looking (I say this not to induce a relationship but to indicate how I feel about myself, and would hope that anyone communicating with me would feel that way too, because that indicates a certain type of person who is comfortable with themselves) and I feel that I continue to look and act much younger than my age (again, this factor is inserted to indicate a frame of mind and not a sexual inducement). I am physically in good shape and love to help other people with all my strength and energy.

I am lonely and would like to receive the email/IM support of an honest, compassionate, caring, warm Christian guy who is between 30 and 70, and I would like to reciprocate that support.

Faïsal Fabien is a 34 yo, 1m 78 cm, 72 kg, gay man from Paris, France.

I am a Catholic Christian since 1996 but do not practice my faith. My parents were Muslim but I am open-minded.

I like love, tenderness, friendship, .....

I am single and want to know nice true people and maybe find a boyfriend.

Please write in English, French, Arabic or Dutch. Merci

Josh is a 6'1", 21 yo, full-time employee and student, with brown hair, brown eyes and fairly dark complexion, from North Carolina.

I work in accounting, and that is what I am studying in college. I am an avid piano player, and many times my songs to God are the only encouragement that I get. I LOVE making new friends, and I am very social. I like to cook, play piano and go out boating. I enjoy lots of outdoor activities as well as indoor ones.

I go to church all the time, but I feel secluded and left out because of my orientation, so I would like to have someone who attends a gay-affirming church where I could feel accepted and become involved.

I am looking for someone who would be a good Christian friend first, because I am struggling with my relationship with God. I have been hurt too many times, and I have developed into a cautious person. However, I am a very friendly and laid back guy.

I love blue eyes and great smiles. I am not into immature "kids" - had one too many of those too. I like someone who is comfortable with being gay, and not just doing it for attention. Basically, I love God and life, and I am all-around a fairly easy person to get along with... just waiting on God to send me someone! And I am praying that God will send them soon!

Randy is a 50 yo man from Lake Charles, LA.

I am a Christian raised in a Southern Baptist Church. Due to the Baptist views on homosexuality I joined a Methodist Church about 4 years ago. I go to the contemporary service almost every Sunday and find it very fulfilling to worship God without condemnation of homosexuals.

I am not in the closet but do not out myself unless asked. I would like to be more involved helping people that are struggling with their sexuality if it's just to have someone to talk to that has been there.

I try to stay in good health by exercising and eating right.

I like all kind of outdoor activities, gardening, hiking, camping, home improvements. The only thing missing is someone to do them with. I have a few close friends and could always use more. I'm looking for friends and possibly more.

Jeremy is a 6', 165 lb, 32" waist, 22 yo, Christian male, originally from Bountiful/Salt Lake City, Utah, he is now in Manhatten, NY.

I'm a former LDS member of the Mormon church and have been inactive since about the time I came out which was fourteen. My life in Utah was filled with life experiences including being a youth activist for four years and a culinary student for two years. After feeling my life was being lived out to it's max in Utah, I traveled for about year, finding myself in New York. I came to New York to focus on my other goals with writing, assisting, possible school, and a possible relationship opportunity.

Life has been really lonely. It's been almost three years since I left Utah. I've returned back from time to time hoping sparks would rekindle with a group of friends which became more my family at times. I've found meeting guys who are about a positive image can be hard. I know I've gone through some rough shades and I've been realizing what made me happy was being around others who were out to do good in the world - people who support and act upon positive images, emotions, and actions in every day life and in the community. I know more than ever in my life I'm missing the Church and being a part of something which supports positivity and spiritual guidance. It would really be nice to meet people who were on the same boat!

Steve is a gay Christian from Peoria, IL.

I am a very kind-hearted person. I attend the United Church of Christ Church. The church I go to is very open and affirming.

I am interested in health care and currently work in a bakery that is run by Christian people, and also work with a 15 year old boy who has Autism.

I do suffer from bipolar disorder, but I do take my medication for this disease. I am HIV negative.

I live with a male friend who is also a Christian. We used to be partners, but have come to a mutual friendship. He is having trouble with his sexuality and believes it can be cured through relationship with Christ. I support him in any way possible.

I like to read, meet people - Christian or not, have positive fun on the internet. I watch very little television. I like Christian contemporary music and classic rock music. I have two cats named Bonnie and Cocoa.

Michael is a 5'10", 230 lb, 49 yo, gay white male, from Glendale, AZ (right next door to Phoenix).

I have a masculine manner, and am a bit on the "serious" side - but I am working on that :^)

I grew up in a very strict Catholic military home, but my parents are loving and caring people, and they provided well for us kids. Because of my upbringing, I have lived in many places. I have been in the Phoenix area for about 4-1/2 years now.

I have not been to a gay bar since '96, when I finally stopped my crazy partying, and started to look for a serious relationship. So far, I have not found anyone, but I am much happier living single than I was while bar-hopping.

I became a Christian in my early 20's, and went through all of the self-condemnation, confusion and doubt that so many gay Christians go through. Yes, I too tried the "ex-gay" ministries for many years, and failed miserably at my attempts to "change".

I am finally coming to grips with being a Christian gay man, and I pray and seek God's will daily. I am presently studying what the Bible truly says regarding sexuality, and it is very interesting and enlightening. I look forward to knowing God better each day, and growing as a Christian gay man.

I am seeking Christian gay penpals, online friends, "real time" friends - and possibly even a mate if God wills it. Please don't hesitate to write, I will welcome all letters, and respond to all. I am basically very shy and quiet, so I don't have many "in-person" friends. Just having a good online buddy would be great.

Thanks for reading my post! God bless.

Jimmy is a 5'9", 185 lb, 25 year old man from Albany, NY.

I grew up in a Catholic family and left that church to start my own journey as a Pentecostal Christian around 1998. As the only family member who went to church, it was a blessing to have such an understanding father, both with me becoming Pentecostal and with being gay. That is a true blessing.

I am seeking friends and a long term relationship. Most of my friends don't understand what it is to be a gay Christian - sometimes I'm not so sure about that myself. I would like to form relationships where Jesus is the Rock and the Foundation of those relationships.

I'm a very mature and career-oriented guy. I love what I do and I am very blessed to have a job that I love so much. I'm not a bar person or a partier. I don't care how many people you have on your MySpace account or care about how much you spent on your Abercrombie clothes.

I'm hoping to establish roots in New York, depending on how things look in the future. My interests include messing around with computers and backcountry hiking. I love bowling and hanging out with the few "good" friends that I have. I'm a Best Buy junkie, which is a habit I really need to break. Drop me a line if you would like to chat or hang out sometime.

Larry is a 6'3", 195 lb, 37 year old gay Christian from
North Little Rock, AR.

I grew up in a conservative Christian atmosphere. My father is a Missouri Synod Lutheran minister, and I attended a Christian elementary school and a Christian
high school.

I loathed homosexuality and that part of myself until I was 22. At that time, I decided to see a therapist after a decade of being unhappy and angry for close to a decade and ultimately considering suicide. In therapy, it took me 5 months to finally tell my counselor that I had crushes on guys. She then began to teach me that I didn't have to hate that part of myself, and I could instead begin looking for a guy that I wanted for a partner.

Unfortunately, at that time in Madison, WI, there were few other venues for gay people than a handful of gay bars. They became a bigger part of my life than I care to admit, and, sadly, the search for companionship became very dependent on alcohol for me. Over time, however, more and more wholesome venues have appeared, and I can honestly say that the Lord has helped me separate the search for companionship from booze. I still enjoy my red wine. But I don't need it to interact with others.

I attend my father's church and run the sound board on Sunday mornings. I have an excellent job with Arkansas Blue Cross Blue Shield as a supervisor with the Medicare program, so I will probably be staying here for a while. However, I lived in Arizona before this, and California before that. My hope is to someday move back to southern California because I love the L.A. area. However, we'll see what God wants for me. I am now an opinionated, pro-gay, pro-Christian (in that order) guy, who finds great joy in meeting and talking to people who are opinionated in the opposite order. I am single, but do not want to be forever. When my parents go to heaven, I will be alone in the world. I don't want this to happen, but have a hard time pairing up, due to my nature as a loner.

Ken is a 45 yo, gay Christian from Toronto, ON Canada.

I was born disabled and am in an electric wheelchair. I grew up in five foster homes, three of them being very strong Christian homes.

I knew I was gay when I was 12 or 13, but because of the homes being Christian, I could not come out. I finally came out at the age of 35 after two suicide attempts.

After coming out, it was hard to come to terms with my faith and being gay, but I finally realized that if we are honest with ourselves and God, then we can be at peace in our lives.

I am a painter and on a fixed income.

I would like to meet that special someone who is "out" and has a strong faith in God. I would also love to have some gay Christian penpals.

Rudaro is a 55 yo, 5'8", 165 lb, hairy, gay, practising Catholic man from Toronto, ON, Canada who loves cuddling, carressing, music, golf and long walks.

I have a cat and live in East York.

I am looking for friendship and a possible long term relationship with another Christian gay man.

Danny is a 44 yo, 5'8", 165 lb, masculine, down-to-earth, laid-back kind of guy, in good shape, from Indianna.

I am a Christian, and can't imagine not having the Lord in my life.

I have been HIV POZ for over 20 years, and never been sick.

I love the simple things in life - fishing, sports, camping.

I am looking for a good, honest man who wants to share a moral, decent life with someone. I am willing to relocate under the right circumstances.

Daniel is a 43 yo, 5'6", 213 lb, bisexual white male, from St. Louis, MO.

Right now I carry a few extra pounds and am currently on a diet. I have shoulder-length hair and a ponytail, a short chinstrap beard, and round eyeglasses.

I am Roman Catholic and I believe that God is my Father, the Almighty, and the Creator of Heaven and Earth. He has blessed me with many gifts and talents, and I am extremely thankful to Him for that. I hope and pray that He will send me a partner and a soulmate with whom I can share my life.

I am very down-to-earth, outgoing, friendly, easy-going, intelligent, have a beautiful smile, HIV-, and I love to laugh and share good times. I'm a little bit shy at first and people have to go that extra mile to reach out to me, but once we meet and get to know each other, I warm up quickly.

My interests are movies, watching TV, listening to music, theatre, concerts, hiking, fishing, camping, museums, politics, zoos, travel, modelling, singing, acting, sports, and just being around people.

I am looking for a gay male, age 18 to 45, military and/or athletic background, athletic/muscular/bodybuilder build, HIV-, and with similar interests and personality to mine, for a long-term relationship. I am particularly attracted to men with long hair and a ponytail.

d b is a 24 yo small guy, 5'3" and thin, with brown hair and green eyes from Atlanta, GA.

I'm very in-the-closet and looking for the same.

I'm religious, but I wish I had a better relationship with God. I do recognize that He has helped me through every difficult time in my life. And now, I hope that it is His will that I find a way out of my loneliness very soon.

I don't want sex; however, I would like, someday, to have intimacy with someone who really loves me.

Antwoine is a 31 yo Christian from Columbia, SC.

I love Gospel Music and fellowshipping with other Christians. I am very outgoing and I have a sense of humor and sincere honest heart. I also have the spirit of discernment so I can pick up on a lot of things about a person.

I am a prayer warrior and I love talking about the goodness of the Lord.

I am currently single and if God sees fit I would love to be in a long-term relationship. However, I am also open to meeting friends so please feel free to contact me.

James aka TLC4myBear is a 49 yo Spirit-born Christian, 6'0", 205 lb, blue eyes, and light brown hair, from Surrey, BC. (willing to move).

I believe that God will provide in His time. I am seeking a man who will be honest as a friend first, with the hope of growing in love and being committed for life. I am seeking an equally tender, loving and caring person to share in the good and difficult times. Life and love will be an adventure with great rewards as we walk the road to eternity.

My Protestant faith in God the Father (Abba), the Holy Spirit and Christ Jesus is the core of who I am. I seek to do the will of my Father and my prayer is to have a mate who has the same love for God. Regular worship and devotions are extremely important to me. Today (01/28/07) I was reminded by the hymn "How Great Thou Art", that we are created to love, worship and adore our Heavenly Father. I have explored many denominations and styles of worship and will fellowship with those who worship my Lord in spirit and truth. Truth is the key, not the denominational name. Loving others is to be second in my life, then to love myself. I am flawed and have accepted my forgiveness that Jesus said was mine if I would believe in Him. John 3:16 Eternal life is mine and I will praise Him forever for His love and grace that He has given to me. Check out the songs on the Live album by The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, "God Is Working" These are the songs and prayers of my inner man.

When the time is right for a lifetime relationship with a special man, it will be God who causes it to be. I believe there is a very special man that God has in mind to bless me with, and that I can be a blessing to in return. I am not in a hurry. I am waiting on God. In His time, He will bring this very special man into my life. I look forward to meeting you, if you know that you are that special man.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. God will cause our different paths to meet in His time. I know that you will also understand "I know that I know" as you too know your Father. We will "know that we know" His will and be assured of His unfathomable blessings for our journey together.

Bill is a 40 yo, 5'10" Christian with dark blond hair and hazel eyes who lives in Standish, MI.

I am genuinely caring and accepting of other people. Intellectually curious, I am also respectful of differing opinions. I am confident in the conviction that my Father in Heaven loves me which gives me peace of mind. I am compassionate and take pleasure in helping others without thought of reward.

While I believe that I am fun-loving and easy-going, I tend to be shy at first but warm up in the company of friends and enjoy deeper personal relationships. I prefer quiet conversations with a friend or friends to weekly partygoing.

I would like to meet other people who are good-spirited and easy-going, as I am.

Carlton aka cartierobert is 36 yo, 5'8" 190 lbs, with hazel eyes and blonde-brown hair.

I live in Alpharetta, GA with my 4 kids .... one dog and 3 cats. I am pretty much openly gay these days. I am a member of the Atlanta Pride Committee, which hosts one of the country's largest GLBT celebrations. I am mostly the average guy next door type, but I occasionally dress in drag as Elizabeth Rose, just because I enjoy costuming of all kinds and I have some friends in the drag/trans community that I like to support by going out with in drag. I'm funny, cute, bright and happy. I enjoy movies, shopping, decorating, dining out, gardening, travel, my pets, playing cards and board-games, and hanging out with friends. If my pets like you, I'm sure that I will too!

When I am not working, I try to be involved with various groups in the community. I not only serve on the APC, but am involved with a local cat rescue group, a GLBT Sci-fi fantasy group and am working on staff at DragonCon, one of the country's largest sci-fi fantasy conventions.

I accepted Christ when I was around 10 and followed Him through college and seminary, working in various locales as a missionary. I did mostly resort work, college ministry and inner city work. I was Southern Baptist for most of the 13 years I spent in ministry. When I came out to myself about 4 years ago, I left the ministry to try and work out the conflict I had with being gay and Christian. I have since made an effort to get involved in church here again at Atlanta First MCC, though it is a good drive and I have to work many Sundays. It is the closest gay friendly church to me. I have tried to attend other churches, but inevitably the sin of homosexuality comes up and I am no longer comfortable in them.

I have tried church, bars, Pride, online services and many other ways to meet guys with very little success. Mostly, I suppose because I am not the initiator. I rather someone approach me.

I'd enjoy meeting a nice guy to be my roommate, for friendship, or a long-term relationship. I want to meet a man 21-40 years old, who is at least as in shape as I am (average to a little extra), kind, caring, and has a good head on his shoulders.

Wesley is a 42 yo, 5'9", 180 lb medium-build man, masculine most of the time, living in Birmingham, NY.

I have been saved for 8 years and I love the Lord, my Savior, with all my heart!! God has been so good to me!! I really don't deserve all He does for me.

Before I came to the Lord I was living in the gay lifestyle. I lived in Orlando, FL. for about 12 years on and off.

I consider myself to be Bi, not completely Gay. Most people (family & Church family) do not know that I am Bi. I struggle with...." is it a sin or an abomination to the Lord."

I love music, mainly Christian, reading, writing, the outdoors, photography, my friends, family, and teaching my Sunday School kids (grades 3 - 6). I will be starting a singing career (adventure) just after Easter, starting with a concert at my church. I sing solos, duets, in the choir, and in a quartet.

I can be quiet when in deep thought, and somewhat crazy with my friends. When I am with my friends I sometimes will talk like Forrest Gump......hence my e-mail name. LOL Scary thing is I sound just like him, and it comes natural. hhhhmmmmm

I am looking for friends any age, and if a LTR (depends on God) ages 21 - 50. He must be honest, love the Lord above anything else, be down-to-earth, and have a good sense of humor.

I am attracted to men with a swimmer's build to muscular.

Tom is a 46 yo, 280 lb, Christian, gay man living in
Boston, MA.

I came to Christ at the age of 14 after attending a week of Christian camping for boys in Lovell, Maine. Within a year I was affirmed as a natural "leader" and began a journey that included many exciting and adventurous opportunities in ministry. I was blessed to travel the world and minister in ways that most do not experience in their lifetimes. Unfortunately, my identity as a Christian, gay man rarely fit into the ministry roles that I sustained.

I am no longer in full-time ministry. I am currently "re-building" my life and seeking God to explore options. I am a professional fundraiser and I own a small IT consulting firm.

I own a home in Boston and I live with gay house mates. I love to play guitar and sing worship music, some of which I write. I love the outdoors. I love camping, cooking, walking, reading, movies and enjoying heart-to-heart conversation over strong coffee.

I am a big guy - heavy set, masculine with a line backer build. Although I try to avoid labels I identify most with the "Bear" gay subculture. I have one tattoo on my left arm of a tribal lion.

I am seeking a LTR with someone 30-50 years old who is secure in the integration of his faith and his gay identity. I am attracted to men who have an average to muscular build and who are masculine.

Scott is a 5'10", 31 yo, average build guy with red hair, who lives near Melbourne, Australia.

I'm a passionate Christian who loves Christ and I'm determined to fulfill His call on my life. I've been a Christian since I was 10 and know a lot of the scriptures quite well, but honestly, I feel like I'm only beginning to find my faith in God.

I'm an artist who is preparing to start my own business selling my ceramic artwork (dinner sets, urns, water features, etc..).

I desire to find a husband/mate who, as a couple, has compatable life goals and perhaps interests etc...

I hope to run a ministry of some sort one day, but at this stage I don't know what type, although I have received a prophesy saying that I'll "speak the oracles of God in Australia, then overseas".

Hope to hear from you.

Jim is a 6'4", 230 lb, 60 yo, single white gay male with blue eyes, living in Northern Illinios.

I have been married and have grown children and am now divorced for eight years. I have always been a Lutheran and have been going to Heartland which is a new way of praising God. I have been enjoying my journey back to God. I had left the Church since my parents felt very strongly about being gay a sin.

I really wish I would have moved out of the closet sooner in my life, yet I have very wonderful children who are all aware of my being gay. My children are all grown and are on their own.

I love working in my flower beds and working in my yard. I do play piano and sing in the church choir when time permits. I have worked for the same agency for 13.5 years.

I enjoy nature walks. I am not a hunter but I do enjoy taking photos of wildlife and walking on the trails.

I would very much like to find a partner who is also taking the journey back to God and we can do it together. Always remember to say thank you for any blessings God may grant.

William is a 29 yo, 5'10", 185 lb, gay guy living in
San Jose, CA.

I'm a person of faith NOT religion. My faith guides my principles and major decisions. I'm responsible, faithful, dependable, and a person of integrity. I work hard, and I love to progress in my job, but I'm NOT a workaholic. I know when to be serious and when to have fun. I love to see people having fun, and I like making them laugh too by telling jokes or just being silly! I enjoy life and I love chatting for hours with friends on the phone or in person. I'm shy around people I don't know, but hyper around friends... (It's the coffee, I swear)

I'm a romantic and love to spend a lot of time with my partner. I like to make them laugh; see them smile... be their support when they are sad or upset, and them for me...

I'm not a clubber or barhopper. I prefer a movie, hike, dinner, play video games, coffee, a friend's house or visit a new place. I also like to stay home and watch movies with my love. I'm a regular volunteer for different organizations.

I'm looking for a Soulmate who loves God, between the ages of 27 and 36 ONLY. Someone who is financially, mentally and emotionally mature. Maturity isn't just being serious; quite the contrary it is knowing 'when' to have fun or be silly, respect of others, and knowing your limitations. Someone sweet, caring, loving... a person who LOVES to be held and loved... Someone who has a heart for others and likes to volunteer his time to causes he believes in. A person of integrity. Preferably he would like some of the things I like. I'm usually attracted to guys my height and build or smaller. He also needs to be 'out' to a majority of his family/friends/acquaintances.

Samuel is a 24 yo, 5'6", 155 lb, athletic Christian guy from India who is currently finishing a research degree in international studies.

I love to read, write, listen to music, travel and make new friends.

I was born and raised in a strict evangelical family. While from childhood I knew I was gay I still struggled with my guilt about it and was in deep denial about my sexuality. However I have reached a stage where I am accepting myself for who I am and wish to serve the Lord by leading an authentic life.

I am looking for prayer partners and queer friends all over the world who love the Lord.

Matthew Gerwing is a 5'10", 180 lb gay man, living in Edmonton, AB, Canada.

I am a non-denominational Christian. I've been a child of God since I was a child. Although my faith is not strong at this point in my life, I know that God is there, and that my life will be worth it in the end.

I grew up in a broken home, which is now possibly on the mend. Near the end of 2006, I finally allowed myself to acknowledge my feelings toward men. Throughout my life I always ignored them; I would pretend that they didn't exist and would go away...well they didn't...lol...and I am in the process of accepting them.

I am currently enrolled in a three-year bachelor of arts program here in Edmonton. I am studying History and Political Science. Don't ask me what I am going to do with that...lol...but they are the interests God has given me.

I love to walk, read, work out, chat, shop, go to the movies - anything.

I am looking for a man around my age 20-30ish. I am open to pen-pals and LTR, and hopefully in the end I will find my man to call my own - and he to call me his own.

Joe is a 64 yo 6'1", 170 lb gay man with brown hair and eyes who lives in Plattsburgh, NY, right on Lake Champlain, about 30 miles south of the Canadian border.

I am very healthy and keep in shape by walking 5 miles a day.

My home is a big interest, also my vegetable and perennial garden. I am a retired librarian/archivist. Since my retirement I do a good deal of volunteer work: Hospice, humane society, food shelf, and subbing as an organist (without fee) as needed. I like to read history and biography. I meditate for some time every day. I am interested in all things old so love flea markets, antique shops, and yard sales. I also travel quite a bit in New York State and Vermont.

I was partnered with a man for over 26 years until his death in April, 2005 from cancer. We were both Catholics and attended Mass together every week for the entire 26 years. Our church was very accepting and gave us great friendship and support, particularly during Larry's illness and death. I attend Mass daily and an often the lector. I am very comfortable in my relationship with God. I also love music and enjoy subbing as an organist or singing for Mass and other liturgies.

I am seeking a Christian life partner. He needs not be a Catholic. I will support him in his religious life, regardless of denomination. I often attend other churches and would certainly attend my partner's church as well as mine. I have a small but comfortable home which I would gladly share. I am also open to relocation for part of the year. Looks, race, age, income, and physical handicaps are not important to me. Character and a faith in God are important..

I may be contacted at the email prompt under my name, above, or by mail:

Socko691 or John K. Moore is a 44 yo, 5'6", 220 lb, gay man, with brown hair and eyes, a goatee and moustache, from Fort Worth, TX.

I am a born again, spirit-filled, tongue-talking, devil-stomping child of the Most High God, who is be blessed enough to be able to share God's many blessings through preaching, teaching and prayer. I fully believe in, and have operated in, many of the wonderful gifts of the blessed Holy Spirit.

Over the past year, I have been blessed with a job as a loan processor for a funding group for businesses, and (Praise the Lord) will be promoted shortly to a junior closer position, where I will be closing potential funding applications for business owners. I am eagerly awating the challenges of this new position.

I have been a Christian for over 30 years, and in the last 10 years have realized the importance of building and maintaining a close, personal, intimate relationship IN, OF and THRU our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

I am now posting this personal ad after much soul searching, and realizing that it is not God's will that I remain single the rest of my life, and that He indeed does have a help-meet out there who shares the same vision that God has placed in my heart.

I have a deep, and sometimes overwhelming, desire to reach the outcast on the streets with God's truth....be they gay, straight, bi or whatever....God truly loves them all, and they need to experience God's love in a new measure. Unfortunately religion has calloused many, many hearts and that makes it somewhat difficult to reach the masses.....however, I know that by walking in God's love and in His direction, by following the leading of the Spirit, He will accomplish His good, pleasing, and perfect will, not only in my life, but in the life of my new partner.

While I am not opposed to making new friends and potential ministry help-meets, I am particularly praying and seeking at this point in my life, that lifetime partner who God has for me. Should you desire to write me in either instance, I am open-hearted and awaiting your correspondence.

Michael is a 6'3", 194 lb, 29 yo, gay Hispanic, Leo male with black hair and hazel eyes from Orlando, FL who is looking for a long term relationship.

I have faith in God, have been a believer since 1993. My faith has come and gone. I am a widower who lost my husband Owen in NYC during Sept. 11, 2001. My son (Devon) died in Feb. 2005. I have been single for 5 yrs and I miss having someone to hold and snuggle.

I am devoted, honest, caring, sincere, incapable of lying and BS. I don't care about looks and am only interested in a lasting love.

I have dated many, but loved few. I am a man of patience, love, forgiveness, trust, honesty, peace, understanding and undivided attention. Any man is welcome - all races and it does not matter if positive or negative. Do you believe in love at first sight?

I am originally from Connecticut and lived a few years in NY. I am a writer and a very creative poet. I do have a picture upon request. I am also willing to relocate across the United States.

I am looking for someone, twenty to mid-thirties, give or take a few years.

Clifton is a 27 yo, 5'6", 247 lb, completely healthy Diamond in the rough...but a Diamond none the less, with black hair and brown eyes, from Montgomery, AL.

Life is a funny thing because one minute things are going great and the next, things go to poop, but God is still good in it all. I recently found my way back to mercy and grace.

In 2002 I lost my job working for a company in Birmingham, AL, and had to move home to help my family. I eventually had a falling out between me and my mother because of an ultimatum over some money, and was forced to leave my family's home in 2004.

In 2005 I started school at Auburn University Montgomery and continued with God, but hung on by a thread.

I met a wonderful man, James, who loved God too and we began to date June 6th 2005. I left God and the United Pentecostal Church in anger and became a club hopper and alcoholic. James and I fought and we broke up because I was not the man that he met. My family discovered I was gay, and my car was repossessed.

Now, present day, I woke up one morning, fell out of bed to my knees, and I told the Lord that I can't take any more. He spoke to my heart and said..."arise and shake the dust off thy feet and walk with Me and I'll restore all that has been lost plus more."

I now have a car, my family and I speak, and James and I talk as friends.

The man I'm looking for will love God, be Holy Ghost-filled, and come from an apostolic background like myself.

Joshua is a 21 yo guy from Johannesburg, South Africa.

I gave my life to Jesus Christ at the dawn of 2006 after my life fell to pieces. I am now more at peace then I have ever been in my life.

The Lord called me to step back into His graces and I will never look back. He has changed me so much and given me so much knowledge and revelation about life as we know it. He is truly my Lord and personal Savior, my King and the Lover of my soul. All I want these days is to please Him and do what He wants me to do. I realize I still have a long way to go on this journey but I am excited to see where my Father is taking me.

I am looking for like-minded and Spirit-filled friends all around the world, and possibly a LTR if the Lord wills it.

Chuck is a 44 yo, 6'0", 235 lb, healthy gay man, with loving blue eyes and a moustache, who lives in a rural home in North East Indiana.

I have been in the Christian faith all my life and am seeking true prayer friends, as well as a like-minded partner - a person to grow with, making our faith stronger. I attend a Non-Demoninational and a Methodist Church.

I enjoy photography, antique tractors and engines used in industry and farms, welding, home improvements, yard work, bicycling, cooking, and being outdoors. I have a strong desire to run my own buisness (repair of lawn equipment and home repairs) and I enjoy helping students with wood and metal shop projects.

Benjamin is a 6'2", 278 lb, 38 yo gay male with brown hair and eyes from ?.

I am an incomplete paraplegic, due to Guillain-Barré Syndrome at age 7. I need either crutches and leg braces or a wheelchair to get around.

Due to my disability I am partially incontinent, and require the use of a catheter or diapers (unless I am within two minutes of a restroom, then I need nothing).

I am moderately hairy on my arms, legs, and chest. I do not smoke, I am drug and disease free and I intend to stay that way.

I am looking for a strong platonic friendship first, and am open to more if
"Mr. Right" who truly loves me comes along. I am not looking for a "one night stand", but someone who can be a lifelong friend.

I am not looking for sex, but if a friendship of a more romantic nature develops then I am open to it. I am looking for someone who can love me and accept me for who I am. I have learned to accept my disability, and I do not mind if someone is attracted to me for my disability, for my incontinence, for my being a bit of a "bear"... but I hope it is for more and that I am accepted as a total person.

I have Asperger's Syndrome, which is a very high functioning form of Autism, that is quite different than "Classic Autism", but is still on the Autism Spectrum.

I am on disability, and have not worked for many years. So I have all the time in the world, but not much in the way of income.

I am willing to relocate for the right person, who will love me and will treat me right.

I have started using a power chair due to osteoarthritis from years of use of crutches and leg braces.

If you are interested, please feel free to email me and we can get to know each other better... and who knows what will happen.

What I look for in a friend is someone who is open, honest, candid, intelligent, and has a good sense of humor. Those requirements mean more than anything. It is what I give, and it is what I would like in return.

I am a very conservative person in general, and I am also a person of great faith (I am of Jewish Heritage, and I was raised a Roman Catholic...I have had both my Bar Mitzvah and my Confirmation, and I am very devout in both traditions of my faith... my family turned to the Roman Catholic Church to escape the Anti-Semitism of pre-WW2 Europe, but my Jewish Heritage has always remained strong my entire life), but I do not "force" it on anyone.

I am ethnically Irish-Scottish-Polish-Jewish-American.

I will reply to anyone and everyone who writes me.

G-d Bless and Shalom.

Note from Mary: The word limit for these ads is normally 300 words. In Benjamin's case, due to his exceptional circumstances and gifts, I have made an exception and included his full ad.

Kevin is a 35 yo, 5'7", 126 lb gay Christian from
Rochester, NY.

I just accepted Jesus into my life about a year and a half ago, and I have never felt better spiritually. I have always been shy and afraid of "life" until I accepted Jesus Christ, and I have a lot of time to make up for.

I am very active in construction, gardening, maintenance - generally things that I can do outdoors.

I have only been "out" for about 7 months, and then only
to my mother and sister. I have been searching online for
a relationship, as I have no gay friends. I am inevitably searching for the guy who I will spend my life with, preferably between 20 and 40 years old, but I would also like to chat with guys my age from other parts of the world and learn about other cultures.

I have so much to say and have never had anyone who I could talk to on a personal level. I am a Virgo so I am kind of sensitive and somewhat of a perfectionist when it comes to me. The guy that I hope to meet could be neat, sloppy, left, right - I don't care. When it comes to others I believe we are a planet of 6.3 billion people and we are all individuals, as it should be.

Jim is a 62 yo GWM from Wilmington, DE.

I'm 5'8" and am on the chunky side, getting this way after I quit smoking 23 years ago. I have brown/turning grey thinning hair, hazel eyes and am on the hairy side. I have an outgoing personality and sense of humor, and would like to meet someone with the same.

I enjoy walking, specifically in places like New York City and Washington, D.C. since I live about half way between the two. I like to dance and go to a bar on occasion just to have a couple drinks and socialize.

Prior to 9/11 I was a believer but not a church goer. Like I told a gay Catholic Archbishop, I don't feel a person has to go to church to believe in God or worship. He agreed. I've wanted to be a believer again but am finding it hard, and now identify as Agnostic.

After seeing the commercials on television by the United Church of Christ, I found one of their churches locally and went a few times but got nothing from it other than friendship with the pastor and his wife. I joined the ChristianGays.com group hoping things will change. I DON'T want some bible thumping individual to contact me. If I'm meant to be a believer again, it will happen and HE will make it happen, not some human being.

If you're between the ages of 55 and 70 and like what you're reading, please contact me. We'll take things from there.

Dino is a 37 yo born-again Christian from Clearwater, FL, who lives with his pet dog Charlie.

I am a free-spirited person with a kind and loving heart.
My faith in God is tremendous. I love going to church, and
I pray and worship the Lord all the time.

I work in sales and also in sports entertainment. I am a
big kid at heart. I love amusement parks, especially roller coasters.

I am looking for a born again gay Christian, a younger man between 19 - 32 yo, who loves God and has a positive faith in his life, someone who is looking for a true friendship and a relationship that glorifies God.

John3:16 is a 35 yo, 85 kg, gay, single, African Christian from Nigeria.

I suffer victimization and prejudice because I am from Nigeria. I am not looking for a partner because I want to get money from him, as I know that my country has ben reported to be in the list of scams. I am not looking for a partner because I want to relocate.

I am looking for the man of my dreams who will love and be there for me - someone who I can share my love with - "bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh".

I have a Masters Degreee in Marketing and a good job. I live well, and want a man to share my life with me.

He must be a Christian, and must include "CG.com" when replying to my post.

Age, race or distance are no barrier. If you think you are the one, please contct me.

Remain blessed.

Jim is 43 years old, single, and lives in Kentucky.

I am close to my family, except I have never come out to them. I am sure they are aware, as I have given many hints along the way.

I was raised in a Nazarene church, so I had a very strict upbringing in regards to religious issues. I went to a Nazarene University and even tried youth pastoring, knowing that someone had to be there for other kids feeling the same way I did. Of course that did not last, as I could not be myself, and had the guilt hanging over my head.

I struggled for a long time, going back and forth, straight/gay, gay/straight or maybe bi. I tried very hard to have the "normal" life but I could not do it. I could not marry a woman knowing that I was doing it because it was what was expected. I still want a family and would love to have children, mine or adopted.

I am a very loving and compassionate person. I am upfront and honest in all things (minus the one) but that has been dragging me down. I have not been actively involved in church for a couple of years and I miss it.

I love to sing and be involved in musicals and plays.

I am looking for other Christian friends and possibly a very special person with whom I could share my life and my love. He must be genuine, honest, caring, compassionate, a non-smoker, social drinker is ok, and be active physically and spiritually.

Kyle is an 18 yo, genetically Russian/Irish (I have Persian blood too, but my family doesn't acknowledge it) gay man.

I come from a very strict Catholic background. I was moved around Europe a lot as a child and spent my adolescence in northern Ireland, but am currently living and planning on staying in London, England.

I am doing a course, hoping to become a masseuse, and yes, I do mean physical therapist, not the "hidden meaning".

I am quite mature for my age, but child-like in the fact that I am sprightly, imaginative, curious, and always fascinated by things which are beyond explanation. My interest in religion is quite widespread. I am not restricted to Catholicism.

I am a vegetarian, and sensitive to cruelty of any kind, be it human, animal, insect even - all of God's creatures!

I am chatty, friendly, and have never been shy about approaching new people and talking for hours! I thoroughly enjoy long conversations. I am "out". I've known since I was eleven, and declared it at 14. Needless to say my family disapprove 100%.

I am quite typically boyish, but am often assumed effeminate because I don't have very masculine features and I'm naturally smooth.

I'd prefer it if I hear from people no older than 35. I simply don't believe any two people born more than two decades apart can truly have anything in common. If you think that you can prove me wrong though, go ahead! Other than that, I don't mind who you are or where you come from. I am not prejudiced in any way, as long as you can speak English, and like to write considerably more than the odd sentence a fortnight, feel free to get in touch!

AJ is a 47 yo, 156 cm, 71 kg, born-again Christian gay man of average build, who is in the radio broadcasting industry in South Africa. He is proud to be a man and is not feminine acting.

He is passionate to help other gay people experience the love and acceptance of Jesus Christ. He is involved in counselling and caring, but is not part of a specific ministry at this stage.

He would love to meet someone who shares his faith and exitement in Jesus, as well as having fun such as taking hikes, watching good movies, listening to music, meeting friends, chatting, cooking, etc. He loves good fun, and believes that life is too short to be boring.

AJ and would like to meet someone of his age or younger for friendship. He does not believe in free love and would want to settle with "that special person" in a covenant relationship. He is passionate about a love relationship and would like to spoil the man of his life in many ways.

Note from Mary: Due to the fact that AJ is from South Africa, and this is where so many scammers are based, I asked him for more information.

He assures me that he has no intention at this stage of his life to leave the country, so he is not looking for any financial assistance, or help in emigrating. AJ says that he is a born-again Christian who would like to have an opportunity to meet kindred spirit-filled people within the Body to have fellowship with.

Ron is a 54 yo gay White Christian man from Chicago, IL who would like to find someone to share his life with.

Earlier in my life, I had studied for the ministry, but later realized that in light of my sexuality, that was not a workable goal in my denomination. I pursued a career in the hospitality industry, and left the church for many years, to return about 5 years ago.

I have been studying for a lay ministry, and feel called to work with seniors and the homebound.

I realize I am not perfect, and I am not looking for perfection in another man, but rather a man who has a sense of adventure and is basically honest, caring and dependable, and has a true spiritual core. My church life is a central part of my life.

I am a sincere and down-to-earth guy who loves videos, movies, the arts, cooking, and entertaining my friends. I guess you might say I am a home body.

I am open to new ideas and adventures, and respect ideas that I do not necessarilly agree with. I have a good sense of humor, and can laugh at myself as well as with others.

I would like to meet a man younger than myself for friendship and the possibility of a long term relationship. I feel a relationship should have three elements to make it workable. 1 - emotional, 2 - spiritual, and 3 - physical.

I am especially attracted to men who are shorter and of Latin or Asian type looks, but not exclusively. I am basically a romantic, and enjoy cuddling, and the touch of another man.

I like to think that, that man is out there. I hope he will take the chance of getting in touch with me to see where it may lead.

Don is a 5'9", 170 lb, 70 yo gay male with brown hair (turning gray) and hazel eyes, from Knoxville, TN.

Folks consider me good looking but I am no judge. I am educated (M.A. in psychology) and a retired psychotherapist.

I am a Roman Catholic and consider Jesus as my Lord and Savior.

My personality is laid back and I love reading, classical and country/western music (and dancing). Sports are a great part of my life (football and baseball) and I love hiking in the country. Laughter is VITAL to me and I love to laugh.

The man I am looking for must be laid back, enjoy quiet evenings and dinners at home, and have a good sense of humor. I cannot abide drama queens or divas, and I do not take myself very seriously. If you think you'd like to meet a loyal and loving man, please write to me.

Aaron is a 5'9", 220 lb, 20 yo gay male with brown hair and eyes, with a goatee, from Bakersfield, CA.

I am a college student with a double major in Anthropology and Religious Studies, and plan on earning a Master's in Divinity. I am a musican and play primarily cello and guitar. I am a devout and active Episcopalian/Anglican and plan on going into ministry with the Episcopal Church.

I am bi-sexual and am not fully out yet. But I love the church and the sacraments, but most of all Jesus, from which both proceed.

I am mainly looking for friends and penpals, but am open to the possibility of becoming more.

Being bi/gay and remaining with a strong faith in Christ is a challenge. I'm glad there is a place were we can encourage each other.

Chris is a 31 yo gay male from North Carolina who is looking for friends only. The Lord has blessed me with a man who loves me, flaws and all.

I have recently become friends with an ordained, gay-affirming minister, and he has challenged me in my writings and my walk with Christ.

I love music and do most of my writings in this form. I am inspired by Evanescence and Plumb. I enjoy poems and speaking with other poets.

I look forward to hearing from you guys. Peace and love.

Don is a 52 yo, 5'10", 175 lb gay male with salt & pepper hair, from Rockledge FL who is seeking a long term relationship.

My faith journey began at age 12. I realized that I was created a little different from the norm - that my life "personnel" would be different. My church said I was condemed to hell. Now my journey for truth began. From church to church, and 14 years later, I found what my soul was looking for - a church where "all" are accepted, loved, and welcomed. I'm on the board, bible study, very involved.

What is missing is a husband. I'm looking for someone to share my life, home, and Christian belief's. I would prefer a clean shaven, full head of hair or close to it (HAHA) non-smoker.

I love to hang out at home, entertain friends, eat out, watch movies, the beach, occasional cocktails, weekend trips. Waiting to walk down the aisle!

I'm very honest, open and loving. Age-race-HIV status are not important. Waiting to hear from you.

Scott is a 5'9", 160 lb, 30 yo Flight Attendant, with light brown hair and blue eyes from Anaheim, CA.

I would say I'm a Christian who is gay, and not a gay Christian. I have a twin brother who is straight, and we are very close.

I'm looking for a long term relationship with a man between 29 to 35 yo, who is out. I want everything that a "straight" couple wants. I just want it with a man - minus the children.

I enjoy cooking, movies, the arts, and traveling. I am not feminine acting at all and I am not attracted to feminine men. Sorry, but I guess I should just get that out of the way.

Jack is in his fifties, from the beautiful New England Highland of New South Wales in Australia.

I'm an older, but wiser, former Roman Catholic Deacon, having spent a lifetime of giving my all to humankind and receiving precious little in return.

Right now, I'm extremely happy to have discovered this Christian Gays Group. I hope to find here much love, friendship, and spiritual support for me after what has been a terrible experience....that of being an ordained Roman Catholic Deacon and of then being shunned by my Church, simply because I was genetically designed by God as a gay man.

As such, I have had to find a way to function in the ranks of the clergy as a second-class Catholic. Now, however, I know better, thank God, than to be guilt-laden anymore. I am gay and, at last, I am thankful to God for having made me this way. I feel as if I am equipped with the courage, necessary if I am to continue living my life in His image and likeness.

And I am happy to say that, after twenty five years of struggling to maintain my dignity, my vocation, and my belief in a loving God, the Church hierarchy in Sydney has recognized the integrity of my ordained ministry. Yet, it has been a long, lonely and winding road to tread.

Still and all, the Church's belated recognition of my integrity, dignity and humanity has shone a bright light of happiness into my twilight years. So, thanks for allowing me to join this group.

I long to meet here a beautiful, Christian, gay guy, with whom I can share my innermost thoughts and desires.

Angel is a 5'7", little bit muscular, intelligent, romantic, understanding, simple, down-to-earth, 26 yo gay man from Ukrania.

I am Ukranian Orthodox and I am not "out" yet.

I'm HIV positive, live alone and work a lot.

I would love to find someone who is lonely like me. I want to LOVE.

I am not looking for a fairy tale romance, but for a love which I sometimes feel I will never get in this lifetime. Not feminine. Act straight.

Timothy is a 50 yo Christian gay male, who lives in a
"55 Plus" RV Park in Spring Hill, FL although he is not yet 55 himself. He is the Campground Manager for the park, which is mainly seasonal for snowbirds from October to April. The year long residents know his sexuality. The seasonal snowbirds may or may not know. He will never deny his sexuality, however he chooses not to promote it among the park.

I love the Lord God and believe it is more important to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ than a specific denomination. I was raised in the Nazarene Church, and have been involved in all phases of church ministry.

I love to play the piano for my own personal enjoyment, as well as offering the abilities I have to the churches I attend.

I have a good sense of humor and a great sense of loyalty to my friends and family.

I miss being physically close to my family in the Michigan area, however I communicate and visit with them often. I love being able to have my mother spend time with me as her schedule permits. I lost my father in death just a year ago this past June. They say "death does not sting". They must mean for the person who passes away, because I sure do miss the daily talks with my father on the phone and seeing him in person. It stings a lot, however I would never be so selfish as to wish him back when I know he is up in God's Heaven singing
