I'm a landlord

Ok so not really but I feel like it. We have two homes that are a part of our youth ministry. In one house our single female youth staff live and in the other the guys. They are great houses and only a block from church but most homes 50+ years in age are showing their problems. Today I spent time in both homes and had a list of things that need fixed. Our church does a great job of fixing the homes but there are some things which just can't be fixed. The foundation in the girls house is sloped as are a lot of homes in Texas and you can roll a can of corn from one end to the other.

One nice thing is that our staff is really happy to have housing close to the church. It's nice for me to have all 11 of my staff living within a mile. Of course it does create some boundary issues but we're working through all of that.

This is a big week for us as it's our last week of summer ministry before school starts. Not sure if anyone has ever played Whirlyball but it's on the schedule for Wed night.
