i'm glad you found out it was someone at your house.
why do so many people live at your house?
well i live in a christian community where we share all things in common, and give to all as have need, we have nothing that we consider our own... its all of ours (with some obvious exceptions, LOL <anyone wanna use my toothbrush
>)
basically, it all started when a bunch of christian guys in the late 60's got together and said "hey, wouldnt it be cool if we actually did what the early church did and followed, like the bible calls us to do?" --- and umm, they did it
Wow. That sounds like a wonderful community.
it has its ups and downs.... we are all fallen human beings on the journey together... not prefect, but the holy spirit help us to flow as one...as long as we keep in the spirit.
personally i wouldnt live any other way.
also, this is not the only house we have, we are dotted around the UK...
London, Coventry, Breighton, Swansea, Northamptonshire (i live here, we have several houses here), Oxford, Birmingham, Leeds (thats a new one), Bristol (im part of a church plant there, i go twice a week to support the church there).... and many others i cannot think of on the top of my head...
