Friends of Christ the Sower

Friends of the Community are those persons who do not feel called to live the life of a vowed religious with us, but who nevertheless do feel called to a deeper spirituality and connection with our vision and values.

Friends of the Community agree to

· Pray daily using the Little Gidding Prayerbook

· Attend the Church of their choice

· Pray for the Community and its Friends, that we may all grow in grace, faith, holiness and fellowship

· Promote devotion to Christ and the gospel by sowing the seeds of faith in our fellows as the Lord makes such opportunities available

· Promote the Community by recommending it to any person the Lord might open to that possibility

Friends of Christ the Sower are first of all friends of Christ.

The Celtic peoples have a spiritual concept they call ’anamchara,’ meaning ‘soul friends,’ and indeed this is what we are; friends of the soul, friends in Christ and friends of Christ. Through Him, in Him, and with Him we are friends, family and the body of our Lord Himself on earth. We share friendship through the Son, discipleship in the Father, and fellowship with the Holy Spirit.

We are all of us soul friends - Friends of Christ!

No greater love hath any man, than he lay down his life for his friends
