"We can definitely handle anything that life throws at us with God by our side..."

Last April Jeff & Emily Bradley’s family was hit with two monumental changes happening in a short time.

“A few weeks after the church our family had been greatly involved in for 14 years disbanded in April 2014, we found out my husband’s job was relocating him to China for 2+ years,” shared Emily.

“Before he left, Jeff and I not only wanted to find a church home that we could become involved in, but also one that our three college-aged children would happily attend with us.”

The Bradley’s, along with three other families from their former church, found that home in Friendship!

“From the start we felt very welcome here, even joking that the name really should be ‘Friendly Church’ as we were greeted by so many folks. We loved the music and found Dave’s teaching very compelling and challenging. God has led us to a place where the teaching reaches all of us. We often discuss what has been shared, what we feel about it, how it can impact our day-to-day lives.”

These experiences have vividly shown the Bradley family that they can definitely handle anything that life throws at them with God by their side, along with the support of their family, church family, and friends.

“While there have been many changes in our lives this past year, we are glad to have made Friendship Church our new home. We look forward to getting to know more of our church family and serving beside them for years to come.”
