CREATE COMMUNITY

I was lonely. They were joyous companions, but I needed more (and likely so did they). My
closest friend had moved far away, and like most of us in the suburbs, I barely knew my
neighbors. Our family life was filled with play, work, chores, activities, and love, but we were
missing a sense of belonging to a larger whole.
