Fellowship with the Saints
Fellowship with the Saints is one of the great joys of membership in the Lord’s restored church. We can experience this joy more when we follow the teachings in 1 Corinthians and pray earnestly for the gift of charity. Consider making goals to build relationships with other church members. Below are some suggestions and resources for inspiration.
“Fellowshipping means encouraging and helping each other to enjoy the full blessings of the gospel. It is showing courtesy and kindness, sharing experiences, and extending service and love. We fellowship by being a good friend and neighbor.
“When we share our time, talents, and possessions with others, we develop a spirit of unity. Paul described this unity when he said that the new members of the Church were no longer to be strangers ‘but fellowcitizens with the saints’ (Ephesians 2:19).” - From a very old church lesson manual.
Resources
Inspiration and Suggestions
As we finish studying 1 Corinthians, ponder what gifts you have and how you could use them to bless other Saints and help build unity.
The Member Tools app can be useful for learning and remembering new names and faces, but only if people’s faces are in the Ward Directory! You can add an updated photo yourself or ask someone in the Clerk’s office to help you.
Join the Ward's Facebook page or send invitations to new ward members.
Find a time to visit and get to know your ministering companion and/or someone on your ministering list.
Plan to invite a family or some friends in the ward to an FHE, Dinner, Game Night, or other group activity.
Check the Ole Miss Athletics Calendar and plan a get-together to watch a game.
Make a goal to learn a little more about at least one person at church each Sunday.
