a long time since

So it's been a long time since I've taken the time to post on here, but it's my intention to start again.

A quick update:
In the beginning of march I moved back to Denver to be near family and to be with a group of wonderful people I hadn't been able to spend as much time with as I'd preferred. I finally got a job after about a month of being here. Until this last week there was a total of 21 people staying in the two halves of the duplex that my friends and I rent in north-east denver.
And I've been able to get involved with Scum of the Earth Denver again.

So to put it plainly, despite some of the hardships that exists everywhere. I feel Denver has been a good decision for me. And I'm considering sticking around here for a while.
This next week, when my new roommate moves in, my rent will be down to $150/month. Which isn't something I mention because of my excitement for cheap rent, but rather for the excitement I feel about being able to work towards my goal of spending equal time working to pay rent and time volunteering or serving others. Maybe finally my ideals of "love thy neighbor" will take more economic root in my life.

Thank you for being wiling to pray for and support marcus and I despite our having given you so few updates on where we are and what we're up to.

Know that I thank G-d for you.
