What I appreciate about interning with Hope House Montgomery is the action behind the statement that we profess: being a good neighbor. We’re so dedicated to upholding that idea that we invite our neighbor(s) every Monday night to come and have dinner with us. It is a great time to engage in thoughtful conversation, build relationships, laugh, and get to know one another better. I have not faithfully eaten at a dinner table since I was a child, so it is nice to have this opportunity to unplug from the norms of today’s society and enjoy the company of one another while being present.
