Juggling housing...

Working with different kinds of ministry projects... that happen in different places... at different times of the year... means that we regularly run into situations where we face complex housing challenges. Last week, for example, we reached the point where we had accepted 20 delegates for next year's leadership development course here in Malaga. With a number of children and nannies included in the mix, this means that we may have already filled our available accommodation. So today we were working with different housing permutations, to see if we can still make room for another two or three delegates on the course. Similarly, there have been a lot of applications for our KKI leadership conference that is happening in Belgium this month, and so today we were working out whether we can make room for another family if they are able to park a camper van on the premises of the conference centre. And then there's our January coaching workshop which also has a full quota of trainees; we've recently added three more people to the group, and so this means that two of them will probably stay at my house during the workshop week in January. Seems we often have more people than the available housing. It's a nice challenge to have, as it means that our courses and conferences are in demand and are being a blessing to those who attend.
