Number 4

It truly is beautiful here. Our home is a luxurious two bedroom, one bathroom bungalow. I really don't even know what a bungalow is or if i am spelling it right for that matter. Anyways community living for Lizzie and I has been a gradual process. I mean we have had roommates for the past 8 months, but it wasn't very intentional. We now live with Sharon and Alissa (our teammates) we share our single bathroom, all our food, each others cell phones. I find myself having to think more about my actions and how they will affect others in the house. Which I think is a good thing, we should all learn to be a little more aware of how our actions affect those around us. ( Check out the book " Serve God, Save The Planet"- that was for you Dave) Anyway Pine Ridge is a unique place. Coming here as the first staff and not really knowing what we would be doing or who we would be working with was kind of nerve racking. Being here for only a week we have found so many people doing so many amazing things around the reservation, everything form afterschool programs to prison ministries and free meals. There are amazing people here, who I will work with. I hope that whatever it is I do, God receives the glory.


P.S. Number 4 represents the community we live in, because there are no addresses, numbers are given.
