Friends Come and Go

When Friends Go …
-
It’s hard when a friend moves away, but it doesn’t have to be goodbye forever. You can still talk by email, phone, or video calls. You can even be pen pals!
-
Learn something cool about your friend’s new home and look it up on a map. Show them you care.
-
Sometimes friends just move on to different friends or interests. Some friends come and go.
-
Remember that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love you.
When Friends Come …
-
You might find friends in surprising places. Your siblings or cousins can be your friends. So can kids from your Primary class!
-
Find someone who seems lonely and do something nice for them. Help everyone feel included!
-
It can be scary to make a bunch of friends at once. Start by inviting one person to do something fun. Maybe their friends will become your friends too.
