INTENTIONAL CONNECTIONS TOOLKIT
Build your Toolkit to aid you and your family to intentionally connect with those whom God places in your life.
Below you will find a variety of items that can be printed, purchased or used to intentionally connect with your neighbors and others in your daily life, whether they be a friend you’ve just met or someone you’ve known for decades. We hope that you’ll find some resources and ideas that are helpful to you. If you have additional ideas, we’d love to share them with others in our community so please let us know about them. You can contact us at missions@fbcr.org or by calling 972-235-5296.
