Community Living













So this is the view from our front lanai (balcony) and these are my roomates I will be living in community with for the next 5 months. We are a unique group.Grace is our youngest at 23, she has a contagious laugh and just fills you with a happiness looking at her.Grace comes from Virginia,USA. Susan is one of the 3 older women in the room and has such a nurturing spirit about her that makes you quite comfortable in sharing anything.(She knows what I am talking about hehehe)Susan hails from the great state of Washington, USA.Next is me and most of you know me I hope.I am from California, USA. Christie is one of 2 Aussie's in our room. She comes from Perth and has a gentle and quiet spirit about her, but I am guessing there is much more there waiting to come out! Keisha is a precious prayer warrior coming from the state of Kentucky, USA. She has been at IHOP for the last couple years and her competitive side is showing now as we start playing UNO! hehehe. Kim is the other older woman to join myself and Susan. She comes all the way from the other side of the big island in Hilo. She is Korean born and has such a child like spirit. So very sweet and innocent. She also has her car with her! WhooWhoo! Last but certainly not least would be our warrior preacher Sally, from Melbourne. The other Aussie in the house. Love to listen to them speak. She is a strong presence for the Lord and looking forward to seeing how He uses her. So here we are 7 women, one large sleeping area, a community room we share with another 6 women and one bathroom with A shower and 2 stalls!
Incredibly life has been so smooth these past weeks. We all get along very well and have learned to give and take quite well. The consideration level grows more everyday..God is so very good!
More to come.
