Prayer Request
Please keep my Grandpa
Hershberger in your Prayers.
He was taken to the E.R.
a few hours ago.
(My Dad took him in.)
I will let you all know
more info when we get it.
Thanks
This is what the road looks like close to where we
park the vehicle and go up the mountain on foot to
get to the "Every Child School" of Sollitte, Haiti.
This is IFM's Ford 350 loaded with the things
taken up for the school the Sunday I drove up.
The 3 boxes of school bags.
Here are a few pictures of the children with their bags..............

(cracked wheat and beans)
Some of the children and the front of the
"Every Child School" house.
I had a wonderful trip to Haiti. ![]()
It was so much fun giving out the
school bags to the children at
the "Every Child School" ![]()
Thanks so much to each one of you
who were Praying for me.
Please keep Praying for the
Teachers and the student
as well as those of us on
the Mission Board of
The "Every Child School".
THANKS!!
I know this update was a long
time coming..........you
have got to just love "dial up"!! It is a real
pain when you want to post pictures and I
still do not have all of the ones on here
that I wanted to but these will just have to do for now.
I am asking everyone to please Pray for the ones who are getting hit by Hurricane Dean. This storm is to be hitting the island that has Haiti and Dominican Republic on it and it is not good when Haiti gets hit by a Hurricane. All the rain makes for really bad flooding and landslides do to allot of the trees being cut down. Please Pray for the safety of the ones there on the mission field in these two country's as well as the natives that live there. I have lots of Friends in Haiti and the Dominican Republic and my Heart really goes out to them as they get ready for this storm. Pray that God can use this as a time to bring the Christan's there closer to him as well as a time that will lead the ones who are still running away from him to him before it is to late. Thanks
Life can be so crazy at times.
About 3 mouths ago I was not sure what I was going to be doing for work and then I got a lot of work at setting the cookies in Wal-mart.
Then when I was done with that I was not sure what was next and I got a call about setting candles in Bi-lo and so I took that job.
The candles kinda got to be a really bad dream. The time that they thought it would take me in each store was totally wrong and so I could only get 3 stores done in a day and not the 4 that I thought I was going to be able to do.
But I am done with that work now.
And guess what.... I am now back to not knowing what I am going to be doing for work after this week.
Do you think that God is trying to teach me to trust him and live one day at a time?
It will be nice to have a week off to get some things done here at the house that I have been putting off. My poor room is need of a good cleaning. I have been out of town M-F for the past 5 weeks so that means that when I get back here it is just get the cloths washed get packed. Do the paper work that has to be done and get out the door again so needless to say my room did not get anything done in it for the past 5 week's other then me running into it and getting the things done that had to be done and me running out again.
The one thing about it is that by doing the candle sets I might be able to get some more work at a higher pay rate and less mess with that company now.
I will just have to see how it all works out. This coming weekend there will be a reunion on my Dad's side of the family that I will be going to.
We always have a good time................lots of fun games, a family auction, and the food O my lets see there will be a Sea Food Supper, BBQ Supper, a big "Sunday Dinner" and lots lots more. Plus lots of time to get to spend with family that I have not seen in a long time.
You all have a great week and Please Pray that God sends the work my way that He has for me to do. - Thanks.
IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER - by Erma Bombeck
(Written after she found out she was dying from cancer).
I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.
I would have talked less and listened more.
I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.
I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.
I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.
I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.
I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.
I would have sat on the lawn with my grass stains.
I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and more while watching life.
I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.
Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.
When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, "Later. Now go get washed up for dinner." There would have been more "I love you's"; more "I'm sorry's."
But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute... look at it and really see it ... live it and never give it back. STOP SWEATING THE SMALL STUFF!!!
Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing what!
Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us.
Let's think about what you have been blessed with, and what we are doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally. I hope you have a joyous day.

Follow the crowed"
I saw this on a Church sign this
week and thought it was good.
My life has been kinda crazy the
past few weeks.....
I was in Colorado for a wedding. ![]()
Then when I got back I went
full speed into Cookie
resets as Wal-Mart.
But through it all God has
been good. I am ready
for some sleep though.
I have not even done my
work for Friday and Saturday
and I have already put in
50 hours of work. ![]()
And that is not counting
the work I have done
after Wal-Mart.
You all have a blessed weekend !!
