Cliff Notes verson of the past couple of months

I realized that after things start to build, after I have not written down so many incredible stories, it makes it overwhelming to try and go back and recreate it all. So at least for now I decided just to give a short version of things to bring us up to speed! The events of the last few months are almost a blur now, because of all that has gone on, but I am going to try!

Greg, our English teacher for the second part of the year had to go back to the states, so I was back teaching again for a little bit. Hated to see Greg go, but did like getting to be more with the kids again. ( I had stopped teaching and was doing more of the admin. and nursing, and malnutrition program, and just whatever)

Then my sister came!!! And the Lord's timing was perfect, because we worked together on things that could not have happened if she had not been there!! On top of the fact that just spending time with Casey makes my heart so happy!

The parents, Casey, the teachers, and myself all gathered together where the new school is being built to pray over this place and for the children and for the life-changing events we believe will happen here. It was so incredible to sing and pray with them, and to get excited about what God is doing

With the help of some incredible people we pulled off an honors day for the kids with only one day of preparation!! I wish everyone could have seen the pride in the children's faces as they accepted their awards. And then the parents as they talked about how their children have learned and grown over the past year!

Awesome VBS with awesome people and teacher interviews all at the same time!

An unnamed group of individuals performed an overt/covert rescue mission that is ongoing even today.

Visit home to see friends and family, strange to be back but wonderful to see the people I have been missing. Sadly I didn't get to see everyone, but had an incredible time with the ones I did. Thank you all for being so incredible!!

Headed back, great road trip to Jacksonville to get on the plane. Filled with daddyisms and mellow mushroom! I love my family!

Landed in Haiti, back to continue to fight the fight for Youvendjy, please Lord give us wisdom.
