The Weekend Dispatch 10/2/23

We have enjoyed a full and wonderful weekend and we have lots of pictures to show for it. You may get picture overload before we are finished.

Friday was the last night of revival at Tanner Williams and it was a great conclusion to the services this week. We had more great fellowship and fun and we loved it.

Saturday I did some maintenance one the tent trailer and bus, but I have no pictures to prove it. My hands were either greasy or wet.

Odie had company and ice cream and then we went to eat with Pastor Williamson and his family. We nearly laughed our heads off and enjoyed a great meal.

Sunday was Homecoming at Tanner Williams. There was a great crowd in attendance, the service was outstanding and the meal was delicious.

I have lost track of how many Homecomings and Friends and Family Days we have been a part of at Tanner Williams, but we always love it. Bro. Donnie, Sis. Gayla and these folks have been genuine friends to us and we value their friendship.

I often say that we have been blessed in the friendship department more than we could ever deserve. There is no doubt about that fact. These people are living proof of that.

We rested a few minutes after Homecoming dinner and then we drove about ten miles to Allentown Holiness Church to preach for Pastor Eugene Futral. Bro. Futral had invited us to come and I am happy it worked to where we could. The service Sunday night was wonderful and we were thankful for the Lord's help.

After church, we enjoyed a meal and fellowship with the Futrals. We had a great time.

That wraps up our weekend. Thank you for stopping by.

View Out The Front Window of the BoggsMobile 10/1/23

Sunday Morning Sanity

Instead of praying, "Lord, how can I get out of this fiery trial?"

Maybe we should pray, "Lord, what can I get out of this fiery trial?" DB

This has been our view out the front window all week at Tanner Williams Holiness Church.

I hope you have a super great Sunday. Thank you for stopping by.

September 2023 Fun With Saylor Brooke

Hey Friends,

This is Odie checking in from Alabama. I hope you are doing well! We have enjoyed our time this week with some dear friends! It started with an unplanned visit with Pastor J.R. and Sis. Teresa Alexander. God's planning is always good.

Being with some of our church family from home is always a blessing! The Alexanders have been friends of ours for a long time! We enjoy getting to catch up with them wherever we can. 

Wednesday was the start of revival with Pastor Donnie Williamson. Tanner Williams Holiness Church has been on our favorite church list for many years! The kind church family always welcomes us into their family with open arms! It is such a joy to watch God encourage our precious friends! 

We have one more service to wrap up our visit for this time. Tomorrow is Homecoming at Tanner Williams Holiness Church. We have been blessed to participate in many special days here! We love seeing this church minister to their community! It is our happy privilege to be here for Homecoming 2023!

September  2023 Fun With Saylor Brooke

The topic for today's post is one of my special little friends, Little Miss Saylor Brooke Walters! I looked back at a post from last year and had to smile. Click here to see that particular post. It was fun to compare pictures from then until now.

Last year was her first tent revival. What a difference 12 months makes? Princess Saylor will be two in just a few weeks. She is growing up so quickly!

Here are a couple more pictures that show the change from year to year. First, we have a 2022 picture of Saylor with her Mama, Regan Morris Walters. Then, a 2023 version of the picture. I feel like she is growing up before our eyes.

2023 tent revival, Saylor was on the move and involved in every aspect of the week! I had a blast with my little friend from set up, the services, lunchtime and tent take down. 

Below are some more pictures that I captured last week. These are in no particular order. I will pop in with some commentary for context.

This was taken after the tent was down and put away. It was time for a goodbye, for now. I find it hard to leave when she is finally used to me being around again! 

Saylor with Aunt Kelly. Kids always love Mom! 

I can understand. Mom is very loveable! Here, they were reading and singing.

I think Saylor's favorite thing about last week was to push me! She would push on my chair and say beep beep.

The beautiful princess of Richton, Mississippi!

She would take me all over the place! Guiding me, saying beep beep and then saying go, back and round.

She even led me to her playroom. That means I have officially achieved friend status! Only some people get invited to the playroom. I was honored!

I could not go out to jump with her on her little trampoline like she wanted. She came and grabbed my finger and said, "jump". I said, "Baby, I wish I could go jump with you." One day, Saylor Brooke, I want to jump with you!

Time for a snack!

Tent setup is hard work. It was time to rest!

Well, there you have a glimpse into our September 2023 fun with Miss Saylor Brooke! We love this little girl so much! I am thankful to be with her a few days out of the year! I am already anticipating my next visit with her!

Thanks for stopping by for a visit today! I appreciate you spending some time with me.
