What our members say

I love being able to connect and form genuine connections with anyone from anywhere! This site is the safest site I've used and feel most comfortable using compared to other pen pal sites. I do wish we got more than one contact credit at a time though! (I feel 2 would suffice)

Very easy to navigate and kind of limited when your account isn't upgraded. But over time you can gradually make friends from around the world, or even selective regions.

I haven’t been here long but I have met a couple wonderful people on here, one I can call a friend and another I hope to soon call a friend. Both follow Jesus just as well as I do and to me it’s very important to find friends who are also Christian. I’ve loved being able to slow down and write letters to them as well as experience the excitement that comes from getting letters in the mail again!

When I was younger I use to have a Penpal, this is great to connect with other people around the world. Sometimes there has been some creepy people but they are removed quickly.
