Revival In Pictures - Hazard, Kentucky

Thursday night was a great conclusion to revival at Trinity Holiness Church in Hazard, Kentucky. Pastor Duane Allen and his folks really rolled out the red carpet for us this week. May God bless them for all their hospitality and kindness. 

The trip back to the BoggsMobile at Bond was slowed quite a bit by all the heavy rain. We finally made it and now it is way past my bedtime. I hope you enjoy seeing the Revival In Pictures.

Thursday, December 5, 2013

We had another great service Wednesday night with an outstanding altar service. I am going to get spoiled to folks responding so good in the altar. We have been singing, praying, rejoicing and having ourselves a time. The only possible downside is that our voices are a little weak and we need strong voices this weekend and next week in Mexico. It is a probably a good thing we have schedule Friday night off for just that purpose.

Bro. Ron Conner from the Bond church brought his truck over this morning and pulled my tent trailer to a repair place north of London. I really appreciate Bro. Ron taking time our of his very busy work schedule to do that for me. That saved me the time and hassle of hooking the trailer up to the BoggsMobile and pulling it over there myself. It saved Kelly Jo a lot of work too since she did not have to prepare the bus for riding early this morning and then set everything back up when we returned. Thank you Bro. Ron for blessing our family. May God bless you for it.

I feel like our trailer is in good hands now. Bro. Brent Gabbard had told me about this place before and when I called him about Tuesday he highly recommended them. After going there and visiting with them I am confident they are well equipped for the job. I will let you all know the end result.

The weather has been nice and warm the last few days. Of course, you know that can not last in December. The rain is here now but it is 72 degrees. However, the cold weather is suppose to follow tomorrow. The weather guessers are saying we could get ice and snow over the weekend but I am hoping they are wrong. 

We have a Christmas service scheduled in London Saturday and service at another church in Sunday morning in London. After that we are wanting to make tracks toward home since we have not been there since late August. We sure want that weather to hold off.

It is also supposed to be very, very cold when we are scheduled to leave Ohio for Tent Revival in Mexico. This is next week's forecast according to my phone.




We are supposed to fly out of Dayton very early on Thursday and connect in Cleveland, where the weather will probably be worse, before flying south to Houston and on into Mexico. We really need the weather to cooperate those days because we can not afford for any of those flights that day to be delayed if we are going to arrive on time and at the same time as Bro. and Sis. Landress. We will deal with it as it comes but our plan is to be under that Gospel tent next Friday night in Mexico.

Thank you for praying for all these little things in our lives. I really do appreciate those of you that read this blog faithfully and make our concerns your concerns. May God bless you for it.

Many Sparrows

It has been a busy week. We are parked at Bond and preaching revival each night in Hazard, Kentucky. The trip takes us 1 1/2 hours each way. I have been working on bus and trailer projects during the day and Kelly Jo and Odie have been preparing for a Christmas service in London, Kentucky Saturday night. 

I have determined the wheel on the trailer needs more attention AND it should be worked on before I drive to Ohio Sunday night. I have an appointment to take it to a place north of London Thursday morning if all goes well. 

Mechanical trouble drives me crazy but each thing needs to be dealt with as best I can deal with it. Every day I ask God to guide my steps yet I find myself fretting anyway. 

In the grand scheme of things our little troubles are nothing when compared to what many of our friends are going through. I need to be more thankful for the blessings I enjoy everyday. 

I must also take comfort from the fact that God is mindful of us even when we do not sense His presence every moment. I have had several texts, emails and phone calls the last few days from friends letting me know that my family has been on their heart and they are praying for us. 

That should be encouraging IF I will allow it to be. God placing us on the hearts of praying people even though our troubles are relatively small, demonstrates God's love and concern for us. 

God takes care of sparrows. We are worth many sparrows. You are worth many sparrows. Praise God for His compassion and help!

We leave for Hazard again tonight in just a little while. We are having a good revival with Pastor Duane Allen and his folks. Keep praying for us.
