Boggs Family Ministries Team Is On The Move

 Hey Friends,

KJo and Karen are traveling for ministry over the next several days. They are making up the BFM team this time. Today, they will fly to Boston. 

I decided to stay home this time around. October, we will be on the move most of the month. I wanted to rest up a bit. 

Mom took Aunt Karen with her on this current trip. They will be in Everett, Massachusetts, at Bethel Revival Center on Sunday. They are excited to see Pastor Orville Plummer and our friends in the Boston area. 

Pastor John DiZazzo of Wichita, Kansas, is scheduled to preach both Sunday services at Bethel. Mom and Karen will minister in music and song. 

Then they will also be visiting the David DiZazzo family in Vermont next week. On Wednesday, they will minister at Lowell Bible Church. 

I am excited that they will be seeing our friends. These are two of our favorite places. I know the scenery, fellowship and weather will be beautiful. 

Pray they have safe travels and a great week. Hopefully, they remember to take pictures!!! Mom and Karen tend to forget that we need pic.  We want to see their trip! Text Mom and remind her to take pictures on her phone! 😄

See you tomorrow.

Sunday Sanity 8/31/26

 Hey Friends,

 

We visited a store on Wednesday. They had a wall of nice signs for the home. I read one that reached out and grabbed my soul. 

Once again it it common knowledge. I was not learning something new, but the reminder was food to the mind and soul. 

I thought I snapped a photo, but alas it did not save. So I made a graphic to share with you. 

This has not left my mind since Wednesday. I am hanging on to the gentle reminder. Hopefully it encourages your day too. 

God Bless!

DRPC Our Home Sweet Church

 Hey Friends,

We are still getting back in the swing of things at home. My body clock is having a hard time switching back from West Coast time this time around. Hopefully, I am about to get it figured out.

I was excited to get back to our church last night. We are blessed with the best church family at DRPC! 

They are so supportive of us with their prayers and love! They are also good at letting us know we are missed when we are gone. It feels good to belong to a church family!

Bro. Andrew Blevins preached great last night! It was a message straight to my soul. He encouraged us to rejoice in the Lord!

In the book of Philippians, we are commanded to rejoice and the Lord always. The circumstances of life may make it difficult to rejoice, But they do not change our obligation to rejoice.

There is one thing that we can all Rejoice about as Christians. We are saved and our sins are under the blood of Jesus! Oh hallelujah, I have a reason to rejoice today and forever more!

Can you join me today in rejoicing? If you are anything like me, you have a mountain of things to rejoice about. But in those moments when it's hard to rejoice, Find one thing to rejoice about. Soon the joy, the Lord will be your strength in your guide!

Thanks for joining me today! I will see you tomorrow.

Desert Cove Assembly 2026 Visit

  Hey Friends,

We are still enjoying our time in Arizona. We were thrilled to be part of the church service last night at Desert Cove Assembly. 

Our family first came to minister here in October 2002. That started a lifelong friendship with the people out here. They become part of our road family. They will always hold a special place in our hearts. 

Last night, it was great to reunite with them. Pastor Noah Martinez invited us to minister in song and testimony. I am thankful God is still opening doors for Mom and me to minister! We are blessed!

We had a wonderful time worshiping God in song. Sis. Carla Martinez joined us on the third vocal part. We love singing with her!

I will close with my pics from yesterday. See you tomorrow!

Blooming California Sunday Visit

 Hey Friends,

We first met the Detherage family in 2010. They have been our friends since then. 

They have prayed for us all through our hard times. It is special to have such wonderful encouragers. 

We have been wanting to see our friends at Bloomington Pentecostal Church of God again. When we began planning this California trip, Bloomington was a must-stop for us. 

On Sunday, we spent both services in Bloomington, California. Pastor John Detherage has extended an open invitation many times for us to visit. 

They welcomed us with open arms and loved us! We had a wonderful time with our dear friends! 

He asked Mom and me to sing and testify. Bro. Detherage preached messages that spoke to us. We greatly enjoyed our Sunday!

I snapped a handful of pictures. I will close with them in a moment Last night we had dinner with the Detherage family again. It was excellent.

This visit was great for the soul! We love the Detherage family! It was great to reminisce about old memories and make new memories. 

Thanks for reading.
