Revival In Pictures - Charlottesville, Virginia

It is kind of unusual for us to have a Revival In Pictures Mile Marker only three days after another Revival In Pictures, but that is how the schedule works this week. I hope you enjoy each and every picture.

I had originally reserved this Monday through Friday block of time to rest or possibly run home in the car for a few days. When Pastor Sipe contacted me about preaching a few nights of revival, I was glad to set aside these three nights. We are so happy to be here.

Pastor Ronnie Sipe has been Pastoring here for many, many years and he and his congregation have recently built a new sanctuary and remodeled the old sanctuary into a lobby, Sunday School space and office. It is all very beautiful and well done.

The services have been amazing and we are looking forward to one more great night. Hallelujah! 

Enjoy the pictures.

The Weekend Dispatch-Expanded Edition 4/7/22

We closed revival Wednesday night of last week in Romney and Thursday was a rest day through and through. The only thing that I did remotely productive was when we met Pastor Bob Jeffreys and his wife for supper about five minutes from the bus.




It was a great meal and it was wonderful to visit with our friends.


Friday we readied the BoggsMobile and Jeep for travel. Here is the bus all shined from Wednesday's wash job.


Less than one hour later after driving 33 miles very slowly, but including about 20 minutes of sprinkling rain, the bus looked like it had never been washed! Ugh!




That is the way the cookie crumbles and road salt and grime splashes.


We parked away from the main sanctuary at Kirby Assembly so I nosed the bus next to the front entrance and unloaded the sound equipment before we parked. The Pastor came soon after and helped us roll everything in. Then we set up and got our soundcheck.

We had four terrific revival services with Pastor Jed Metzler and his family near Rio, West Virginia Friday, Saturday and Sunday. You can see Revival In Pictures from that in our Mile Marker from Tuesday.

Monday morning we rested as much as we could and then began the process of moving back into Virginia. It was about noon by the time everything was ready to go and about 2:30 when we pulled into the Love's near Staunton, Virginia to do the work of the evangelist.

While at Love's, we disconnected the Jeep and the girls went to do laundry. I put some diesel in the BoggsMobile and drove about 75 minutes more to Full Gospel Assembly in Charlottesville. KJo and Odie met me there later.

I wanted to spend the night at Love's but the RV spots out front were too small. I am sure the management would not have minded if we parked there, but it might have made it inconvenient for other RVs and pickups with trailers, so we moved on.



After the girls arrived in Charlottesville, we went to eat with Pastor Ronnie Sipe and some family. We enjoyed a great meal and fellowship. Unfortunately, food pictures are all we remembered to take.


Tuesday was a rest day as designed. I must get this resting routine down pat.😊 Last week we had revival in two churches seven nights out of eight, sang and preached ten times and rested Thursday. It was important for me to rest Tuesday for sure.

Wednesday morning we carried in sound equipment here at Full Gospel Assembly and set up for soundcheck. KJo and I went about six miles south to Wood Grill Buffet for lunch and enjoyed every bite of it. We think it is as good as the Wood Grill in Harrisonburg and that is saying something.



We began revival Wednesday evening. We are only here for three services, but we are super glad to get better acquainted with Pastor Ronnie Sipe and his precious folks.


We should have several pictures from here on Friday. Thank you for reading today.

A Word For Wednesday, Testimony of Kenneth Ware

 It is time for A Word For Wednesday. A Few minutes ago, I posted A Word for Wednesday on our YouTube Channel. Please give it a listen and leave us a comment here or on YouTube.


Today's Word For Wednesday is the testimony of Robert Kenneth Ware. This man's story inspires me to get busy about the Father's business! There is much work to do for Christ in the kingdom of God and stories like this man's life story make me want to work while it is day.

Thank you for reading Mile Markers each day and for watching A Word For Wednesday each week. We really do appreciate it.
