    About this ebook

    JESUS, OUR FAITHFUL FRIEND
    It is with great pleasure that I share this third installment of the Meet Me series.
    In the first book, Meet Me in the Manger, animals came alongside Mary and Joseph in the story of Jesus’ birth. In the second, Meet Me in the Countryside, children embraced Jesus’ love as they listened to His parables out in the fields and along the sea.
    Now in book three, Meet Me in the City, we are reminded that Jesus is our best friend—
    our most faithful friend. We can talk to Jesus anytime, anywhere, about anything. Anyone, whether a child or a child at heart, can sing JESUS IS MY BESTEST FRIEND, FOREVER!

    As a mother of two, grandmother to six, and retired 40-year veteran in the field of education, this scripture is my voice and purpose. Watching my sons marry and provide a Christ-centered home for their own children, I believe my Heavenly Father also wants me to share with other families His truth and love.So, what’s next? As for me and my house, I choose to serve the Lord (Joshua 24:15) through writing as a means of lay ministry. And with prayerful consideration, I am writing two more books in the Meet Me series. In them, we will experience how Christ joyfully lived his last days and how we are given individual gifts as part of the family of God.
