Default What is a good place to meet other saints?

What is a good place to meet other members of the church?

I must admit that most of my friends aren't LDS or very religious people and they do things that aren't appropriate by LDS standards and they invite me to join them.

Just by attending church activities and services? Any other ideas? It's hard to stay active when most of your friends aren't LDS. Sometimes it's easier to go with the crowd than against it.

You can always run into some on Sunday afternoon at Smith's Groceries.

I haven't done that in a long time. I might need to do that.

I'm 24. If SA stands for Singles Actives or Singles Wards I plan on going to a singles ward.

You could try NOT attending church activities and services but I think your first idea was better.
