About Our Group

What is CSI? By our baptism we are “incorporated” into the church body, the Body of Christ. CSI is a place JUST FOR SINGLES in the church community, where “faith and fun meet and marry”.

What’s the goal of the group? To get you off the couch and mixing with other happy, holy, and interesting Catholics. We’ll have social events, faith sharing and bible study, and community service projects. We want to provide a place for you to deepen your friendships and your Catholic faith.

Is this a Catholic pick up club? No. Predators will be given the Catholic boot!

Who can join? Sacred Heart Catholic Church invites all baptized and practicing Catholics who live in the Coachella Valley and surrounding areas to join CSI.

What’s in it for me? Food, fun, fellowship and faith enrichment. Weekly meetings, monthly social events, day trips, parties, dinners, dances, community outreach and holiday events . . . Maybe even a cruise in the future!

Are there membership dues? No, but some events will include a modest cover change, like dinner dances or day trips.

My Protestant friend wants to come, can she? Sorry, but there are other fun places in the valley to fellowship with other Christians. This group is for those who may end up or who want to be “equally yoked” (as Scripture says) with others who take their Catholic faith seriously. Marriage today is hard enough; an undue burden is placed on the relationship when there is not a shared faith. If she wants to know more about the Catholic Church, invite her to bible study or go to www.Catholic.com for solid teaching.

I’m Divorced. Can I join? Yes, widowed, never married, and divorced single Catholics of any age are welcome. If you are currently going through a divorce or are separated, you are not yet SINGLE, and not ready to begin dating again, but we can help. We offer loving support through our Divorce Rx classes (see church website/ bulletin for info).

I’m nervous about dating and not sure if I want to marry. Should I still come? Yes! This is not a Catholic dating service, although if you are looking, then finding a spouse in the group would be a great blessing. For most people, though, the blessing will be finding new friends, social support, and—hopefully—entering into a deeper understanding and love for your Catholic faith.

I just want to be happy. Will this group do it for me? Christ shows us how to find happiness here on earth: in the sincere giving of one's self for others. Please consider Sacred Heart CSI a place not so much where you can come and get something, but a place to share your unique self, your gifts and talents . . . and most of all your heart.
