I have spent the last several days getting used to a new office. That's right, I finally have an office! And a corner office with a window at that! Call me a nerd, but organization is one of my favorite things so I have been in heaven these last few days as I am finally able to have a place where all my work can be in one spot. I have put together binders with lots of lovely dividers for all my different areas, dug out my grammar books and have acquired all of the necessary desk supplies such as red pens and PostIt notes. :)

The move has been part of a greater effort to centralize all of our media and communications into one room. The "media room" now houses Laura (our other communications guru) and I and will soon be home to a beautiful set of shelves for all our DVDs, brochures, newsletters, remit envelopes, etc. We are also purchasing a new computer which will be used solely for media projects. We are streamlining our communications process and one of my pet projects has been a giant bulletin board which will have all staff newsletters posted for others to see. The reasoning is twofold. One: It allows all staff to see who is where in the writing process and (hopefully) will help us all hold each other accountable and two: it allows staff to see what others are doing and communicating with their supporters.

My hope is that this room will also be a place for me to display some of the many photos I take to keep staff connected with things going on in other areas of ministry and with our building projects.
