    HAITI

    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.

    Sometimes,
    the only
    sense you
    can make out
    of life
    is a sense
    of humor !!

    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.

  • "To get no where,
    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 !!
