Do you have enough friends?
Do you have too many friends?

Last sunday we resurrected something we had not done for over a year now...
A group of us got together and had lunch after church. It was simply called "International Lunch" for obvious reasons.
Now this group is quite diverse! Kiwi's, Asian's, African's and a guy from South America...
And what did we eat. Chinese Food.
Why do I mention all this?
Simply because we had a great time, and I don't know anybody who doesn't want friends!
Friends are what makes a church fun. Yes, you can be religious and do all the 'church stuff'. But you need friends.
They help you to keep going on your jouney with Christ...

Acts2:42
They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship (being friends/hanging out) , to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

We talk a lot about being like they were in the Bible (without the weird clothes).
I think they had something special together as friends...and look what happened because of their commitment and relationship...

Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common.
….Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favour of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
