We watcha clip from the Bible when Jesus called them to be his followers in the New Testament and learn about how they became a community; working, learning, caring, listening, laughing, and helping together. We think about how we can follow Jesus' example of being part of a community and what this means for us with our friends and families, in school, at home and elsewhere. What will you do to follow Jesus' example of being in a community? Please post your answers in the comments section.
