Relationships

 Jesus focused his ministry on building a small group of 
followers into a large faith community through intentional 
relationships.  We are called to be in relationship with one 
another, to love one another, to support one another, and to 
help guide each other on our faith journey.

Opportunities to Grow
  • Create and celebrate family traditions
  • Unplug from electronics to give others your full attention
  • Learn to be a better listener
  • Ask someone to share favorite childhood memories
  • Host a game night for friends
  • Sign up to play a team sport in your community
  • Share a meal with someone you’d like to get to know better
  • Find an accountability partner
  • Attend an adult retreat
  • Become a mentor to a child
  • Plan a family reunion
  • Invite others to share in your hobbies
  • Participate in group service activities
  • Host a get-together with your neighbors
  • Share your story with someone
  • Invite a friend for coffee

And let us consider how we may spur one another on 
toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting 
together, as some are in the habit of doing, but 
encouraging one another—and all the more as you 
see the Day approaching. 
~Hebrews 10:24-25
