Yes. There are not many young people that attend since it is a small church, but it does have a decent group of college students. In fact, the girl who wants to be friends attends there and she and I are usually the only ones that show up to the college Bible study the church has every Tuesday. She also works at the library, though we won't work together during second semester. During this interterm period, we did work together one evening a week.

Find a club/group at church that is within your hours and go! Go to everything possible. Talk to everyone there about something. It is very difficult to make a great friend by remaining silent. Groups afford you the luxery of small conversations. No one knows that you want friends until your out there.

I prefer to meet people of like faith, saving the angst of uncomfortable social situations. Don't discount friendships with older people. They can become mentors.

I wish you the best.
