Adelani Children

The Adelani Children

The Adelani Family

Sis. Mary & Bro. Salmon, Livingstone, Holiness, Righteousness &
Godliness

On the way to church we stopped by the Adelani's to see their
church and home. Bro. Adelani interpreted 6 services for me 2007 in
Abeokuta and in the Minister's Conference this year. Now we are in the
city where he pastors. He is cooperating with Bro. Kuye and other
brethren in Ibadan to hold the Crusade and Conference here.
We are so glad to finally meet his family and see his church and
his home. We sat down in their home for a few minutes and enjoyed
their fine hospitality. We were amazed to see pictures of our family
on their walls and a sign of welcome as well.
May God bless the Adelani family in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria.

Supper on Saturday

   I probably get more comments and emails on the food pictures than I do anything else so here is another one. Supper today was in the hotel dining room.  They had quite a selection so it was a little hard to choose. We finally settled on Tender Goat with Spiced Rice.  It was very good and it was very spicy.  Probably a bit much spice for Odie but we liked it.
    We are taking it easy this evening in order to be ready for the next four days.  My voice was pretty strong by service last night and of course I took advantage of the strength.  I hope to be completely ready by tomorrow morning.  I am used to preaching 6 or 7 times a week but 2 or 3 times a day for a few days is more than I handle and still keep my voice.  They said that John Wesley used to preach up to 9 times a day!  All I can say is that he was much more of a man that I am.
   I will try to update you tomorrow...

Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria

Kelly Jo and Odie in our hotel in Ibadan.

We made the trip with Bro. Shobanke just fine from Abeokuta to Ibadan. It was a
beautiful drive through the country and numerous small cities and
villages. I tried to take pictures with my phone out the window but I
could not capture the beauty.
Pastor Salmon Adelani and Pastor Stephen Kuye have teamed up to
bring us to Ibadan for the Crusade and Minister's Conference. Bro.
Adelani came to Abeokuta to travel with us and Bro. Stephen met us
here at the hotel. We appreciate their fine hospitality and love for
the ministry.
Our first service is tomorrow morning in Bro. Stephen's church. It
will be a joint service with Bro. Salmon's church. Then the Gospel Crusade will begin Sunday night outside the same church. We are thankful to be in Ibadan and we are looking forward to what God is going to do here.

Winter Weather

Thought you might like to see the weather right now in Abeokuta.
12/5/09 and feels every degree of 102. Great day NOT to be in winter
weather at home.

Car Wash

I took this on the way to church last night. This is a typical car
wash in Abeokuto. This man is hard at work washing a taxi.

Odie & Pastor David

This is Pastor David from Lagos. We met him in 2007.

Saturday morning

A picture of Odie and our driver Emmanuel. He is Bro. Shobanke's
nephew and is a great driver.

It is shortly after 11 am and we are preparing to leave for
Ibadan. We are supposed to leave around 12:30. We will be in Ibadan
until Wednesday night. When we finish there we will return to Abeokuta
before flying out of Lagos Thursday night.
We have not been to Ibadan in Oyo State but we are looking forward
to it. We have met some of the Pastors from there and we are looking
for a move of God. We will be having the Crusade at one church and the
Minister's Conference in another. Pray that God will help us.
We do not know about wifi there so we may be dependent on Odies
phone service for updates. I will let you know then.
God bless you every one.

The Doctor

 Dr. Hunyinbo Kehinde Isaac is the man that challenged Dad to put the sermons from the Minister's Conference in 2007 into book form.
He is the only Doctor that has ever encouraged me to have faith in God for my miracle. We call him the "Good Doctor. ". Doctor Isaac is one of our special Nigerian friends.
Also here is little Isaac Shobanke. He is five years old.

Pastor Isaiah

Pastor Isaiah & Davy
They gave us a beautiful plaque for coming to be with them but the pic
on my phone is blurred. They were so kind to us just like every where
we have been. May God bless them for blessing us.
Bro. Shobanke has had several preachers here from the U.S. through
the years and I am privileged to be among them. It is certainly a
blessing for us to come to Abeokuta. We are sad to say Good-Bye to our
dear friends.
Tomorrow we leave for the city of Ibadan which is a very large
city to the North. I do not know if I will have access to wifi so I
will try to update tomorrow morning before we go.

12/04/09 Altar Service

Altar Service with people coming to be saved, healed and
delivered. This kind of response is worth every mile traveled and
every dollar spent.
Davy

Preaching

Preaching down the aisle with Dr. Hunyinbo Kehinde Isaac. He is a
medical doctor and one of Bro. Shobanke's elders. It is the first time
he has interpreted for me and he did a fine job.

Welcome Boggs Family

Christ Ambassadors Holiness Church

Tonight was our last service in Abeokuta this year. We were in
Pastor Isaiah's church. It is a branch of Bro. Shobanke's church and
is also called Christ Ambassadors Holiness Church. We had a wonderful
service. Several young people came to the altar seeking salvation.
They came with tears and my heart reached out for them.
They are working on the road in front of the church and they said
it us an answer to prayer.

Friday Night

On the way to church in Abeokuta on Friday night.

Odie & Bro. Shobanke

Bro. Shobanke came for nearly two hours today. He preached to and
prayed for Odie much of that time. Here's a pic after prayer.
He will be back about 4:30 to pick us up for church tonight. We will
be preaching for Pastor Isaiah here in Abeokuta.
We all rested good last night and are feeling much better than
yesterday.
Thanks for the comments and emails.

More Preachers

Bro. Elijah & Bro. John with Bro. Shobanke.

Bro. Israel

This is Bro. Israel. He came from Lagos for the meetings and is a
convert of Bro. Shobanke over 30 years ago before he came to Abeokuta.
We were able to help Bro. Israel and many other preachers because of
the generosity of individuals and churches in the U.S.
