Constance and Her Companions
We give you thanks and praise, O God of compassion, for the heroic witness of the Martyrs of Memphis, who, in a time of plague and pestilence, were steadfast in their care for the sick and dying, and loved not their own lives, even unto death; Inspire in us a like love and commitment to those in need, following the example of our Savior Jesus Christ; who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

This conversation is the first of several meetings on the topic of friendship: what it is, why we need it, how we can cultivate it.
For this first gathering, please bring your Bible. If you have time, look through the Gospels and see where and how Jesus uses “freind” or “friends.” Some passages to consider (this isn’t a complete list, and it also sometimes depends on translation):
Matthew 11:19, 20:13, 22:12, 26:50
Luke 11:5ff, 14:10
John 3:29, 11:11
Newcomers are welcome. Light food will be served. You must register in advance.
