First Service of Tent Revival

Wow! We enjoyed a great first service of tent revival Sunday afternoon. It was hot but not intolerably hot. The Hilldale folks were ready to have church along with a few from other churches. We didn't have any from the community under the tent that I could see but I saw several listening in their yards or as they walked by. We are expecting the Lord to draw them into the altar before the week is out.

I know this is three posts in a row about tent revival but I am just a wee bit excited to be back under the tent. I felt the Lord so near as we sang, worshipped, prayed and preached. The congregation responded so well in the altars as the preachers prayed for each one that came. Please keep praying for us and the meeting. I'll try not to post every day all summer long about tent revival but I am not making any promises.

God bless,

Davy

Bro. Larry and Sis. Rosemary Landress came to help us kick off tent revival. If I remember correctly, Bro. Larry helped me put up my first tent in Wichita several years ago.


Bro. Kurt and Sis. Angie McCrorey were here to help as well.


Bro. Jimmy and Sis. Shauna Millikin blessed the service tremendously.



Sis. Conner took the rest of these pictures.

  5. When it is this hot, everybody is hot no matter how much or how little they have on. Lol

    Actually it hasn't been that bad anyway. We have had a breeze each evening. I have prayed for good weather every where we go this summer and I told God I would rather have heat than heavy rain or strong wind. He sure has answered my prayer this week.

    We are experiencing the blessing of the Lord this week. I wish every one could be here!

  6. The other day I went into a local store and it was hot outside. Of course I had on my long sleeves and a long skirt and this guy looked at me and said, "Aren't you burning up?!?" I just said, "No, not really." He was wearing shorts and a tank top. I thought about saying, "Aren't you freezing to death?!?" but I didn't. Ha! Him and another guy got a good laugh out of me. Oh well. It ain't the first time and it won't be the last!

  7. If I'm not mistaking Bro Landress was the first to preach under that tent for a Spanish Revival after we had it made. Enjoying seeing all the pictures, really think you need a tent meeting in Fl July/Aug.
