Fellowship

fellowship is a funny thing. sometimes it can happen without even a word being said. case in point… saturday night a few of us (namely: katy, daniel, anna, ryan, taylor; amongst others…people who have met pastor willie before or served with him) went to kyle’s parents house to hangout with pastor willie (the pastor from south africa who kyle and stefani are working with). eventually, it ended up being just daniel, taylor, ryan and myself sitting outside around the fire pit, enjoying each others company. conversation topics included: homelessness and drug use, money and materialism, camping, retreats, fellowship, the tribe, marriage, parents, and selfishness, just to name a few. but the time i enjoyed the most was the couple minutes when nothing was said. we all just sat there in silence, staring into the fire and soaking in it’s warmth for a few minutes. nothing was said, and it was perfect! it was a beautiful example of fellowship in all its glory…the connection had already been set…the understanding was there…God was our common thread…
