Buddy Time
BUDDYTIME is all about friendships that lead to loving service. Groups of Buddies meet in restaurants, homes, offices and parks to cultivate relationships, discuss character issues and plan loving service projects. How very exciting! We help make the world a better place through the power of friendship, character development and putting our hands to compassionate work.
There is power in numbers…and comfort…and synergy. Together a cluster of friends can accomplish what they would never be able to do independent of one another. It is the magic of ‘one another’ that has us keeping touch and touching the lives of those around us.
Here at BuddyTime.Org you can tap into a supply of readings from a great variety of contributors. These articles, of varying length, conclude with two discussion questions. The idea is to get your team hashing out character traits and making real applications. Each month we’ll post a new batch of readings for your use in your local BuddyTime.
In addition to your group’s local 7-week compassion project, we offer the possibility of an international trek of love…to Trujillo, Peru. Rendezvous in Peru lasts about 9 days and includes working like a dog (in Peru the phrase is ‘work like a burro’).
BuddyTime is totally a volunteer network. No dues. Find some individuals (men, women and youth) and get started. I invite you to send pictures and testimonies for our website so others can be encouraged and celebrate our collective fellowship and impact on lives.
So, welcome! Welcome to a growing mosaic of friends who are out to change the world, beginning close to home.
Your Buddy,
Jim Larsen
