What our members say

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!

In my personal experience, this website is a great way to meet new people and make friends! I love the personalization feature where you can select certain circumstances for who you want to talk to. Very safe, reliable, and helpful. (I got a Penpal within a couple months!)

Why using the Internet and forgetting about the best opportunity it provides us with, a chance to share and unite, find a penfriend. Here, on this website, it is easy to do =)

I started using Global Pen Friends in 2020, then took a break for some time. Now I am back, and I’m really happy I returned. The site is warm and friendly, and I have met kind people and made real friendships. It feels nice to connect with others from different countries and share stories.

I meet good pen-pals here. I feel happy when I receive letters. Now we exchange culture. That's great that somewhere has a person who have same thoughts with you. Thank you!
