Because the problems of child molestation and abduction proceeding from internet contact have become so widespread, the U.S. Congress passed the "Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 2000." This act prohibits people under the age of 13 from using any message board type system without signed proof of permission from the child's parents. Because the stated purpose of this website is not just the exchange of information, but instead is specifically to arrange meetings between strangers, we have raised that requirement to 18 years old. We cannot open this site to those who are legally considered "children."

We're sure that this may seem like an unnecessary rule, especially to 16 and 17 year olds who are zealous for the Lord and really need to find Christians in their area. To those under 18 years old, who may be frustrated that they are prohibited from creating a listing on this website, we suggest you partner with someone who is over 18 (your parent, your youth minister, a friend) who can sign up on the site in your place, who can speak for you, and who can go to the evangelism team outings with you. We're sorry it has to be this way, but we're sure you understand the necessity to protect children.

If you are thinking about lying about your age in order to become a member, you should examine yourself to see whether or not you are really a Christian. Those who have been genuinely "born again" will not lie. Please take the test at NeedGod.com to determine whether or not you are good enough to get into heaven.
