Exclusive Brethren care for their aged and their sick, whether relatives or otherwise.
Their
leaders have taught and demonstrated to them that their fellowship is
based on unselfishness and each one caring for the interests of others
(Acts20:35).
Social life is full and includes travel,
fellowship, entertaining, and outdoor exercise.
Exclusive Brethren travel regionally and globally to attend special
meetings and enjoy the universal fellowship.
Group travel is established for attendance at special meetings.
Exclusive Brethren do not attend restaurants or venues of
worldly entertainment, nor eat with others outside
their fellowship.
Overnight accommodation is always provided in other
brethrens' homes.
Households generally entertain households, young
and old mingling together to prove the blessings
of the generational overlap.
Exclusive Brethren enjoy live music in their homes from their
own members. Many younger Exclusive Brethren learn to play
musical instruments.
A meeting every day provides opportunity for spiritual
renewal and social contact at a suitable level.
Hospitality pursued without preference or prejudice
is an obligation and privilege of their fellowship.
