From jcolon at episcopalchurch.org Wed May 21 14:26:17 2008 From: jcolon at episcopalchurch.org (jcolon@episcopalchurch.org) Date: Wed May 21 14:30:06 2008 Subject: [NJ Forum] Housing Need Message-ID: Dear Friends, I am writing to seek your assistance. The Church Center has recently hired the Program Officer for Jubilee Ministries, Social Justice and Poverty Alleviation. He and his wife are from Colorado and are looking for a place to live in the NYC area. Their needs are simple (their nest is empty although one of their children might like to come visit once in a while), and I believe that he, a priest, is willing to explore housing in exchange for services possibilities with a parish. My sense is that assisting may be more of a weekend thing since his job requires some travel on his part. Also, they are willing to pay a reasonable rent for an apartment. If you know of any possibilities, please contact me at the Church Center by email or phone (see below). Thank you for time and attention. Peace, John John E.
