It is the time of the year when we celebrate our “good things” and choose to learn from our mistakes. An equally useful exercise for Passion374!
We thought that the pandemic would only affect 2020, but no, it continued well in 2021. We still had a few openings, so we took the opportunity to organize more in-person activities, even if our online activities had to continue. In all, Passion374 has organized 32 various activities and conferences, 98 online Bible studies, and two pieces of training to help singles enter into the calling that God has placed on their lives. Many thanks to God for opening these doors and guiding us in the best way to serve Christian singles despite all the restrictions.
We would have liked to travel more, and present more workshops and conferences in different regions of Quebec and the rest of the world, but health constraints made these trips impossible. The lack of volunteers also weighs heavily on our ability to serve more singles in the areas where they live, but we will continue to pray for an opening there.
On the media side, we continued to produce short videos on YouTube. Our YouTube channel now has over a hundred short videos. Our blog also contains more than 350 articles, including those of our collaborators. And our big news for this year is the Spanish translation of our site. Even Bible studies were in Spanish, and we thank the Spanish-speaking volunteers for helping us make this happen. On the new side, we also now have a presence on multiple podcast platforms, allowing Christian singles to be encouraged at all times.
Here are the five most popular English articles of 2021.

“I don’t know if I’m in love with this person…” some Christian singles sometimes wonder when they develop a deep friendship. They’ve been used to the standards of the world, but what about the children of God?
Because He is the God of the impossible!
When circumstances beyond our control prevent us from pursuing our goals, we can be utterly discouraged. When our dreams seem unreachable, our heavenly Father wants to remind us that He is the God of the impossible!
Seeds to harvest joy
Unanswered prayers missed opportunities, broken hearts many circumstances can make us shed tears. But in the hands of God, these tears are seeds that will give us joy later.
Remembering our privileges to persevere
We know what God expects of us, but when faced with pressing desires (like being in a relationship!), we sometimes lose the desire to remain faithful to God. Let’s look at the reasons why we should stay in holiness.
