Goodnight!

   Well tomorrow morning please the Lord I will be of this island for the first time in 5.5 months. Wow can't believe I have been here that long. Well the truth of the matter is...is that I will only be a 2 hour boat ride away from Grenada on a really small island that is part of Grenada called Carriacou. I am rather exited but can totally see a crazy weekend ahead! We are going to have a crusade night or revival nigh and then a one day vbs. And if you thought that far we will have tomorrow (friday) of of school. So I was busy this week trying to double up on lessons. Which half the time was sorta a struggle for several reasons. #1 since Christmas vacation my kids have not really caught up to the normal speed not sure why..I did change up the schedule then and that helped some. #2 week two into coming back into school one of my kids missed almost a whole week of school so this week was also catch up week for him. So anyway I will be glad to get into the normal routine again..although i don't know if that is happening any time soon because i believe this is the trimester for all manner of change such as field day, independence day ect. But oh well. One rather sad thing that happened since school started is that Cyle on of my boys moved to a next school that has a preschool because his younger brother is going there and his parents want Cyle to be able to walk him home and watch out for him since they both work and are not home before them so that was all and sudden. Like the first day of school he was there and then the next day his mother comes during teacher chapel and tells us he is transferring and we didn't even get to say goodbye because that very same day he didn't come to school because he was fitting for uniforms at his next school.  Oh Janisa Nolt was here for a week it was fun to get to know her, and I know the people that served with her last year really enjoyed it. One of my highlights while she was here was going to Mout. Carmal falls and climbing to the top of the waterfalls!! it involved a lot of grabbing onto vines branches and such like.. and then we went to a point were the waves would come crashing into this little hollowed away place. A place were you just have to praise God for how awesome he is..anyway Amanda and I decided to stand were would get wet when a big wave would come in little did we know it was going to be a extra big wave so instead of getting slightly wet we got drenched!! But it was a lot of fun!  Cyle did come then to see Janisa so I got to see him..(Janisa was my class' 1st grade teacher last year) Well I guess there isn't much else to tell....Just as a prayer request..Pray for the Carraicou trip for safety, that lots of people would come out, that Satan would have no power over the island, that we would reach many people and that the truth would sink into there hearts and not just their heads, us staff and we witness and our own spiritual safety. Well goodnight i will put some pictures on and then go. Love Crystal
 This past sunday the church went to sing at a handicap children's home well not all of them looked like children but it was a lot of fun they had out their tambourines and what ever all  out and were clanging away in a very orderly fashion while we sang,and even sang a few songs for us it was really cool then after that we went on a little walk/hike and got a really nice vew.
 three boys that use to go to the Laura school waiting for their bus the boy in the middle is Shane.
