Hesed Suite, Spring 09

Christine posted some sweet (suite... haha) pics from the end of the year...

We had a picnic at Herrick Lake for Heath's bday!! (Yay, Heath!)




Beautiful birthday girl...


It was a bit chilly for late April, but our suite always knows how to have fun.





This might be my favorite suite pic of the year:



Then, finals week, we went to Cheesecake Factory for a Hesed Suite Girls' Night Out!


Unbeknownst to me, the girls had planned it as a going-away dinner for me before HNGR!

(yup, I'm crying in this pic)

They made me feel so special and we had an awesome time... we reminisced about our many favorite memories together as an apartment, and we also made (written) lists of each roommate's particular quirks to see if we all recognized the same ones (we did). Yeah, we're pretty cheesy... and we like it that way. Come over for dinner and you can help us sing the Doxology for grace. For serious.



My roommates are hott. Let's not lie.

How much do I miss these girls already...

Update! QUIRK QUIZ:

Match the roommate to the quirk...
Does Heath, Christine, Laura, or Em:
A) Start all her laughs with a surprised "Oh!" sound, like "OH-ha-ha-ha!"
B) Frequently have deep conversations in the bathroom (not GOING to the bathroom necessarily- like, brushing teeth or when one person's in the shower)
C) Cover anyone's sins with a "Bless-his-heart" (this one's fairly obvious)
D) Think any and all butt or fart jokes are HILARIOUS

Hmm, how well do you know the Hesed Suite?!

Human Needs Global Resources Covenant, 2009

As fellow travelers on this journey, we commit to this covenant before God. Lord, in Your mercy, hear these our prayers:

When confronted with scarcity, need, and inadequacy, may we be nourished by the Bread of Life and the Cup of Salvation. Abundance overflows from Your table, sustaining all who come in faith. Father, help us.

When monotony blurs our vision and dulls our senses, may we encounter others as Christ did, through intentional presence in daily life, submitting as clay to be formed into vessels filled with the Spirit. Christ, guide us.

When wounded by the fractured condition of Your people, may we be united by Your Lordship in faith, hope, and love; seeing, as through the facets of a diamond, the beautiful spectrum of Your light reflected onto Your holy Church joined in praise. Spirit, empower us.

When all Creation groans, afflicted by injustice and driven to despair, may the promise of redemption root us in the hope of Your Kingdom: "Behold, I am making all things new!"

Holy Trinity, send us now into the world in peace, and grant us strength and courage to love and serve You with gladness and singleness of heart.

Amen.
