Friends can make us laugh, know the right things to say when we are going through a tough time – and even finish our sentences for us! Friends look out for us and have our best interests at heart.

For an upcoming issue of Gather magazine, we will feature a story about the ways friendships enhance our lives. To make this a reality, we need to hear from you!

Do you have a special story about a friend? What does being a friend mean to you? How do you nurture your friendships? How does friendship enhance your overall wellbeing?

By Friday, April 11, please send us your name, congregation name and brief story (100 words or less) to [email protected]. Thank you!
