Small Group, Large Friendships

When Mark and I joined our new church we immediately wanted to get involved with a small group. That was just a little over a year ago.  We walked the "small group tradeshow" and felt a connection with a young couple in their late 20s/early 30s. We went home and talked about it and decided we wanted to join their group. Elizabeth looked so familiar and so did her name on paper. We were going to be traveling the next Sunday so I emailed the church and told them we wanted to join the Bullen small group. Well Elizabeth Bullen emailed me right away. I responded from my work email and we finally realized we DID know of each other already. We are in the same professional organization! So that was a connection right off!

The small group included 4 other couples in the same life stage as us and totally hit it off. We have been blessed with such an amazing group that encourages us, laughs with us, keeps us accountable, prays with and for us, we serve together, we study the bible, celebrate birthdays, births, career accomplishments, we share Thanksgiving dinner, etc.I'm looking forward to the friendships that continue to grow, seeing each one of us grow spiritually, and the changes that will occur as we go through life!

Love you all!
