Tonight we visited with some friends from our former church for dinner and fellowship. We hadn’t seen many of these folks since June and it was good to catch-up. It’s important to visit with one another in person and not virtually.

Being with these people was good for my heart and soul. There is something about breaking bread and sharing stories with one another. Dinner tonight was potluck and that too is a metaphor for people who come together bringing their own dishes to share. Reunions are a special thing and when you have it with people who were once a regular part of your life and who you were with weekly it can be a special event. Friendships are supposed to be long-lasting even when the thing that brought you together is no longer.

Special thanks to Mike and Sandee for hosting tonight.
