Launched in 2000, Christian Connection is currently the largest Christian dating site in the UK and was voted best niche dating site at the international Idate awards of 2013.

There are an estimated 1.4m single Christians in the UK between the ages 25 and 60 (attending church once a month), many of whom live and work in the London area. The site has already facilitated thousands of relationships and marriages.

The campaign centres on murals created by graphics artist Alex Fowkes. One claims “Christians make better lovers” with “love one another” a key part of the Christian code.

“We wanted to be friendly, engaging and surprising,” said Christian Connection founder Jackie Elton. “We hope it will make people of all faiths and none sit up and take notice. The campaign informs single Christians about a website that may help them find a mate who shares the same world view,” she added. “The style is exciting, colourful and delightfully retro. Until now we have relied on religious media and word of mouth but we want to spread our wings and reach a wider range of Christians. They are out there – we want them to know we are here.”

The campaign’s creator, Chas Bayfield from advertising agency Noah, said: “We believe this is a great opportunity to tell the world about Christian Connection and create a campaign that is contemporary and relevant – not something many church organisations are known for!” he said.

Chas is no stranger to the church or Christian Connection. He has designed several advertisements for church advertising campaigns over the years.
