Linking Up - Experiencing the joy of family within a church
Relationships are important. As individuals have discovered Jesus Christ and settled at St. Paul 's, deep friendships have formed through sharing meals, conversation, and life experiences. As time goes on, these friendships begin to look much more like a family, providing caring support for each other's needs. We invite you to come make a friend and in the process you just might find a family.
The need to belong is one of the deepest yearnings of a person's heart. In Christ, we are one Body led by one Spirit. We are committed to humility, gentleness, and patience with each other and will make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit of God.
Jesus and the people he makes holy all belong to the same family. That is why he isn't ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters. Hebrews 2:11 (CEV)
We belong to each other, and each of us needs all the others. Romans 12:5 (NLT)
You should be like one big happy family, full of sympathy toward each other, loving one another with tender hearts and humble minds. 1 Peter 3:8 (LB)
