Revival in Pictures - Calvary Holiness Church, Brooks, KY

We have enjoyed ourselves so much at Calvary Holiness Church in Brooks, Kentucky! Pastor Doug Webb and his wife are so precious. It is always so refreshing to be around them. May God bless them and their fine folks for their kindness and hospitality.

We plan to pick up the tent trailer Thursday and go on to Paducah to prepare for tent revival. Pray for us that all goes well these next few days.

Hope you enjoy a few pictures... At the bottom of the post you will see some pictures of more special visitors we had during revival.

Kari Noe from Danville, Kentucky brought her mother Ashlee and her brother Malachi to see us Tuesday night in revival. I have mentioned Kari on the blog before and she is just as precious as ever. She is fighting  a fierce battle with Leukemia and she is winning by the grace of God. 

We had a blast visiting with our friends and we are so glad they came to visit. Thank you Sis. Ashlee for making it happen. You can learn more about Ashlee, Kari and Malachi HERE.

Kari calls it the Green Machine...

What's In A Name?

Wow! You all really participated well and came up with some great names. I don't think we have ever had so many comments on a post. I could get used to that. 


Thanks for all your help. We have quite a variety of names to consider. I listed several in the original post and then we thought of several more just after the post went live.  It took a while but I think you all came up with nearly every additional name that we did. Two names that we had thought of previously were finally added to the list by Gran and Sarah Collins. They were Wile E. Coyote and the Green Hornet. 


It is amazing to watch great minds at work.  You all are hilarious!  The BoggsMobile's Liitle Booger?  Kermit the Hulking Booger?  Kermit the Hulk?  The Green Giant Mobile?  The Green Gospel Gangsta?  Sweet Pea?  Pea Shooter?  Chilli Relleno?  


Man, you guys are awesome and these are just a sample or your hilarious brilliance! We have laughed our heads off. 


We have noticed in reading these that America has a fascination with green super heroes and characters... The Gecko 
The Green Lantern 
The Green Giant 
The Green Hornet 
The Incredible Hulk 
Oscar  
Kermit 


There are a few green characters that were not mentioned  in the comments like... 
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 
Larry Boy the Cucumber 
Godzilla 
The Grinch 
Frankenstein  
Shrek 
Yoda 


Who knew there were so many green characters? That is pretty funny in itself! 


There are so many names we like that is hard to narrow down the list. 


We want the name to be concise, clever and it must roll off the tongue easily. It must also feel natural to us. 


-Pickle fits perfectly but we already have one Pickle in the family: Odie Podie Pickle Hymer Schmidt and she is often called Pickle or Pepino.  


-Mr. Green Jeans, Sweet Pea, June Bug, Zion's Scion, Emmy, Mellon, The Hulk and many others are clever and concise but none of them feel really good to us.  


-Goober, The Slime, Booger and the rest are out of the question according to KJ. 


We like several of the green characters especially The Green Hornet, The Green Lantern and the Gecko but we have ultimately rejected each of them for one reason or another although I was pretty fond of changing Odie's name to Kato as Jason suggested. lol


As for Mexican food we liked the ideas of Chili Relleno, Guacamole and Jalapeño but they are not easily shortened except for Guac and that doesn't past KJ's sound test.  


-Boggs Frog definitely meets the criteria. Plus when you pull a vehicle behind a motor home it is commonly referred to as the towed car or "toad" for short.  


-Sci-Fi meets all the criteria and KJ loves X minus 1 and Dimension X on old time radio.  


-Wile E. Coyote is one we have talked about quite a bit. We had often joked of painting him on Mr. Cheap Jeep so that he would be perpetually chasing the Road Runner on the side of the BoggsMobile.  We can imagine ourselves calling the Scion "Coyote" which kind of sincs with Odie. "Odie, get in the Coyote!" 


There are two others that we like that didn't show up in the comments. 


The Green Machine really rolls off the tongue easily.  Several people who have seen us in the car have remarked about our new little Green Machine.  


Another one that KJ likes really well is Greengo. You know how we love Mexican food and our many hispanic friends. Greengo is a play on words with Gringo which we are and a green car that goes.  


That's where we are in the naming process. Let us know what you think of our short list and feel free to suggest more names.   


The little thing is certainly a gas saver. We have checked two tanks for mileage. The first was in-town driving and the second was all interstate at over 70 mph. They both came in at a little over 31 MPG. We love that. We will check a few more tanks and let you know the results.  


Thanks for reading.

Deborah Isaacs

We had a big treat at church last night in Brooks, Kentucky. Not only did we have a good service and great fellowship but we had a special visitor as well. One of my first cousins drove over an hour to be in church with us. Her name is Debbie Isaacs  and she brought two of her friends all the way from Frankfort, Kentucky. 

Debbie is a sister to Lisa that went on the Gospel singing cruise with Odie back in February. Debbie has lived in Kentucky for 26 years and we have rarely seen her over the years. We were in church with her in Ohio one service last year and that was the first time in church together in years. That makes this visit really special. 

God has really been doing a work in her life the last year or so and it was so good to see God continuing that work. Thank you Debbie for making such an effort to be in revival and to bring your friends. You really made my day by coming to be in revival with our family. May God bless you as you continue to serve Him.

Debbie is a faithful blog reader as well. I told her that her picture would probably show up on the blog but I didn't tell her that she would be the subject of a blog. I never know for sure where my fingers will lead me when I start typing a post. Hope you don't mind, Deb, but it is a little too late now. Lol

We are enjoying revival already. These folks at Calvary are easy to preach to and responded in the altar service last night as they always do. We should have lots of pictures to post by the end of revival.

God bless you all.
