June/July 2026 Update
Special Annual Gathering issue.
May 2026 Update
Thanks so much for reading this month's news from The Initiative, a community committed to "walking in deeper friendship with Jesus and his followers, so that the love of Christ might exceed all divisions." We do this primarily through prayer, sharing of our lives, and proactive work for greater unity.
April 2026 Update
In last month's update, I made a passing reference to the tongue-in-cheek placeholder name for our community (before we landed on The Initiative) as "FOJ (Friends of John)". Somewhere in there, I think we also played around with the idea of keeping the FOJ and just subbing in "Jesus" for "John". Ergo, the "Friends of Jesus"
