Making
new friends while helping
others find their soul-mate.
As a member of Joined In Jesus
you have the option of searching
for friendships, especially
if you are not seeking a partner
for a serious relationship
at the moment.
Joined In Jesus makes it easy
to locate new friends with
a variety of features.
1. You can perform a search
for friendships only. By performing
such a search, you will be
directed towards anyone who
has indicated that they are
interested in forming new
friendships. This includes
those who may also be seeking
relationships, but it will
not include those who are
only seeking relationships.
2. As a member, you have the
ability to add other members
to your contact list as a
'friend'. Once you've added
a contact as a friend, you
have the option of turning
on a 'view' for them. This
is a pretty cool feature in
that it allows you to control
whether other members get
to see this person in your
friends list.
Your friends list is accessible
to other members from your
'banner' when it is displayed
in search results. If you
have any viewable friends
amongst your contacts, the
"Friends" link on
your banner will be active,
thus allowing members to see
a list of banners for each
friend in your list. Remember,
only those friends who you've
turned 'on' will be visible
as a friend of yours. The
usefulness of this feature
becomes clear as you begin
to explore Joined In Jesus.
See the example below.

The
above image represents a typical
user 'banner' where you will
locate the friends link. This
link will be active if they
have friends who they have
made visible to other members.
If the link is inactive, it
means that they either have
no friends listed, or they
haven't allowed any of their
friends to be visible to third
parties.
If another friend, or acquaintance
can view your friends then
they have the opportunity
to ask you to make an introduction
for them. If they are looking
for a relationship, then you
can help make 'breaking the
ice' easier by contacting
your friend and telling them
about the other member who
has, or may have, interest
in meeting. In this way, you
can become a matchmaker of
your own. What greater joy
than to know you have helped
two people meet?
The
above image represents the
'ViewFriends' page where you
will see a list of member/subscriber
'banners' that represent the
friends that a member has
listed in their friends area
AND that have been made 'Viewable'
by third parties. In this
example, user 'rfrey' has
friends 'jesus', 'dsscheibe8'
and 'sheen48'.
Note
the "Send" link
on the extreme bottom left
of each member 'banner'. This
link allows you to send a
notification to a third party
who you think may be interested
in this user. So, if you thought
a friend of yours would be
interrested in user 'jesus'
then you would click 'Send'
within user jesus' banner
to send a referral to a friend.
This just the beginning of
this part of the Joined In
Jesus community. As we grow,
and hear suggestions from
our users, you can be sure
we'll work to improve all
aspects of your membership
with us.
