The short answer
Among the five sites compared, only Christian Love Story lets you write and reply without paying anything. The other four charge for all or part of their service: on the Canadian App Store, a month costs $49.99 on Christian Mingle and on ChristianCafe, and eharmony's plans start at 84.99. On Christian Love Story, nothing is paid, and photos and profiles are reviewed by a real person.

How this comparison was made
This comparison is published by Christian Love Story, which appears in the table. Each cell repeats what the site itself writes on its public pages — home page, terms, Canadian App Store listing — and each row cites its sources. When a page says nothing on a point, the cell says “not stated,” never “no.” The check is redone every month; a site listed here that spots an error can write to us through the Contact page, and the cell is corrected as soon as the source confirms it.
Before you pay for a subscription, read the terms
On a paid site, free sign-up is often only the door: you create a profile, you see people, then messaging asks for a subscription. Before paying, look for three things in the terms: what the subscription really unlocks, how it renews, and whether unused time is refunded. On eharmony, plans renew for 12-month terms with no refund for unused days; on ChristianCafe, all sales are final. On Christian Love Story, the question never comes up: creating a profile, being seen, writing and replying cost nothing.
What you will find on Christian Love Story
Everything free, messages included, no credit card. A website in English and French, open to people living anywhere in Canada. Photos and profiles reviewed by a real person, and a report button on every profile. Your church on your profile — Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, Pentecostal, Baptist, Orthodox, Methodist, Adventist and more. And a goal written plainly: marriage.
