Days 1-3...we have internet! :)

Hello! sorry I haven't made a post. It is not my fault. I have typed and "pretended to blog" but we had no internet connection. So, here is a mish/mash/gobbly gook of what the past 4 days have been! :)

Hello from Haiti! 
What a day, flying from Grand Rapids to Cincinatti to Ft. lauderdale to Port-au-Prince! God is so awesome, I got a window
seat on every flight! Sat next to really nice people on the planes and in the airport in Cincinatti I had some really 
nice conversations with a couple there! I was safe the whole time and met a really cool couple of guys that were on the plane with me. They helped me through customs! A lot of things look the same, and a lot look WAY different. There has been a lot of progress at Christian Light Ministries. I cried tonight while on skype with my Dad and David....just a little overwhelmed. We got it all figured out, I calmeddown :) and then we decided it was time for sleep! (4am wake up isn't the best!)
There is a lot to do this summer and hopefully we can get started on it tomorrow!
Blessings,
Amy Worst 



Today is Friday!
Im on day 3, but day 2 of being here (day 1 is travel)
I'm watching the sunrise finally and it's gorgeous!
We have an awesome God. I am really trying to figure out what God wants but yet i'm trying to just enjoy the time I have. I don't know if this is a final trip for me or still the beginning. I think Sherrie is just so overwhelmed with everything right now, she really needs some full time help. Keep this in prayer!
There is so much to be done this summer in preparation for next school year/august! Hopefully we will have the boys out of the lean-to by next week!!! (they are sleeping outside in a make-shift room/tent) 
The container is supposed to come in the next couple weeks. Yikes. Really need to prepare for that thing coming with all of it's goodness.
This morning I am going to go to the hospital with Vidlon. I'm so excited and yet so scared about this little excursion. I pray the God has healing power over Vidlon. Over his stomach and whatever this might be. Jesus is a miraculous and amazing God. (He even created roosters!!!)   :)
im not sure what to write but that I am so glad im here. There is a lot let stress this time because I don't have the short time frame and with the group trying to make sure everything is done etc etc. Ive also connected with Jo Anne who is awesome!!!! everyone thinks we are sisters. We are white and blonde blonde hair! LOL
well-- here I go it's off to breakfast and then to the hospital!
Happy Birthday mom! :)

Saturday June 11.
What an awesome day yesterday. I didn't go to the hospital with Vidlon because he was feeling much better! Praise God! Yesterday was such a good time. I spent the afternoon pretty much with the older kids. All of the older kids studied Africa. And then Marc stayed after to work on spelling (his choice!). I got the computer out and he skyped with me and my dad and david! :) that was cool. We keep losing internet connection and when we do have it it's really slow. 
Then we did devotions as a group and afterward I played cards with some of the boys. They are a lot of fun. :)
The team from Tennessee is leaving today. They spent a whole day in the office (Jared and Amanda's old room) painting. They got the older girls room painted already and took out room dividers! The girls are cleaning and starting to move their stuff already! They got the plumbing ready for the new room, and all kinds of stuff! they were a really nice and funny group to start off the month! :)

Alright, it's time to pray and sing! And the sun is going to come up...there aren't any clouds so today will be HOT HOT HOT!
Love and blessings,
Amy Jean
