About Anchored

WHY ANCHORED?

We believe that getting singles from like-minded church singles together occasionally could be spiritually and relationally heartening.

2022 THEME

The theme for Anchored this October is “Guarded by Wisdom” In a world full of folly that vies for the attention of our hearts, this year’s conference theme will encourage us to seek wisdom (Prov 4:7) and to value it as essential to the protection of our very lives (Prov 4:13). We want to be reminded that biblical wisdom is essential to living as Christ intends and we want to be warned that pseudo-wisdom seeks to take us––our desires, our affections, our plans––captive. The teaching of Anchored 2022 will challenge us to guard our lives with wisdom.

When is Anchored?

October 8th will be our sixth Anchored. The schedule will include sessions of singing and teaching, and lunch and breaks for the opportunity to get to know one another. The schedule will fill the better part of a Saturday at Mission Road Bible Church.
