Our fellowship did a lot of things together. We were small (now we are smaller) but we worked together. We washed our cars together, looked after our gardens and helped with projects. We also mowed the lawns of some people who were unable to do it themselves. When a new person came into the fellowship, we would pitch in together to meet any need that they might have.

Things are a little different now as most of the people have moved on. I hope that they have taken the principle of helping one another with them. We will grow again (one new believer just yesterday) and we will maintain the same principles.

I don't think that covers the entire spectrum here. Say someone you meet is interested in a particular style of music, something you know nothing about. Is that an opportunity for you to learn about something new, and connect with that person?

Well, it's obviously not talking about money or mutual understanding. Just about thoughts and prayers and wishing for others to become more like yourself so they too can become happy.
