Looking for an Honest Lady

Every day I receive requests to be put on our denominational email list, so that people can receive news updates. These come through the denominational website which I manage. The thing is, most of these requests come from places like Nigeria, Pakistan, Namibia, and Zambia. In earlier years, I would respond nicely to such requests. Now I simply delete them. Cold, I know.

Today I received a request from a fellow in Louisiana who wanted to be put on our email list. He explained his desire with this note: "I'm looking for a honest lady. its not the reason i go to church. but its better then going to any bars, ect."

I hadn't considered the idea of creating a denominational dating service. That seems like a worthy tool for a conservative evangelical denomination as it pursues fulfilling the Great Commission. I'm sure that we do have, in our churches, a good many honest ladies.
