New Roommate

Today I have a new roommate. My old roommate left a few weeks ago and I was really enjoying living by myself, but a new girl has come and I was the only room open. She seems really nice. So far I've only been able to say hello to her cause she's been going through all the introduction stuff. It's so weird to have someone else in here.

At the end of the week most of the staff will be leaving. At the Jordan we will have about 8 people left to work and then a couple leave after the second week. So all this means that my August will be very busy. I'm the only cleaner supervisor left, so I will be doing that job about every day. I'm really scared about that cause it's so much work. So if we could just pray that God can send us more workers for the month of August, that would be great!!! We are even more short staffed than the spring when I first started.

Something that I have been thinking a lot about lately is home. More so about why do we have to associate ourselves with one denomination? I mean I do it all the time; someone asks me what church I go to and I always say Southern Baptist. And I'm not saying that it's a bad thing, but why can't we every once in a while, come together as one body of Christ and show the community that even though we are different denominations, we still have Jesus at our core, and we, together as one body, want to share Him with you. I've been thinking a lot about how to do this. There is a thing called "Serve the City" and it happens all over the world. Christians from different denominations come together for one weekend to complete projects that need to be done in the community. And these are a lot of different things, from construction, to talking, to taking care of someone or something; it all depends on what you feel your strengths are. Why couldn't we do something like that at home? Even though we're not a city, we still have a lot of things that could be done in our town/county. I just don't want us to always be so seperated by our denomination and realize that we are all children of God and God wants us to serve each other as one body. Just something to think about.
