We are going back by popular demand to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina! We are packing up and heading for the hills for a truly blessed time of fun, fellowship, relaxation and ministry. So come and join other Christian Singles from all over the US.

If you are new to A Matter of the Heart events come and make some new friends or if you are a past participant, come and reconnect with old friends.

Come and join Christian singles from all over the US & the world as we set off for a fun filled adventure. We will have singles from many backgrounds, denominations, ages, & races come together in unity to have fun, fellowship, and ministry. If you have ever experienced an A Matter of the Heart event, you will know why so many people are excited about coming back again and again.

This event has something for everyone. If you love the outdoors, there’s hiking, rafting, horseback riding, fishing, swimming and much more. We will visit some local swimming holes as well. For those who want to shop, there are some quaint shops in town or you can drive into Asheville approximately 40 minutes away, where there are many shops and an outlet mall, as well as the famous Biltmore House. There are packages for rafting and horseback riding or you can just book a room and relax and even book a relaxing massage. Massage prices start at $65.00 per hr.
