As we practise social distancing, it can be easy for people to end up isolating themselves, so it’s more important than ever for us to belong to basic Christian communities that can be a source of support, encouragement, fellowship, and launching pad for God’s mission.

Communities may look different now, but we can still reach out and check up on each other, share our surplus of resources, keep talking through online chat and video conferencing, and encourage each other to look towards God. Remember, we value groups and gatherings because we reveal more of Jesus together than alone.
