Friendship Connections

The opportunity to 'reconnect' with friends is always a valued one, especially when we share a common faith and hope. To offer support and show appreciation to others is a privilege of friendship, as is experiencing the support and appreciation from others along our journey.

While connecting with friends is great, connecting with Christ is far greater. Joseph C Ludgate wrote these words about the ultimate friendship.

A friend when other friendships cease,
A friend when others fail,
A friend who gives me joy and peace,
A friend who will prevail.

Friendship with Jesus, fellowship divine,
O what blessed sweet communion,
Jesus is a friend of mine!
