Welcome

Hi all. This is my inaugural post of my new blog. I hope that this will be an enlightening and helpful endeavor.

My fiance and I have been looking for a place for the past little while. We are having a really hard time. No one seems to want to rent to a couple of students, and there seem to be plenty of potential tenants to choose from.

So it's easy to feel sorry for ourselves. However, at the same time, we currently have roofs over our heads, when there are plenty of homeless people in the area. They must be freezing. It is snowing outside and there are so many people huddled on the street. On Saturday, when I participated in the Neighbourhood Homeless Outreach Ministry walk, we found eight people in a ritzy part of town. And these were just the people we found! We hardly ever run into any women, so I don't know where they are hiding.

Anyway, I thought I would take this moment of reflection to ask everyone to please volunteer, donate, interact with, and pray for the homeless this winter.

Peace, Erin
