On The Run and Having Fun!

Thursday was a busy day of preparation and today will be more of the same, so not much posting today. 

I do have a couple of pictures from church on Wednesday night at Desert Cove.

I also have a picture of the Green Machine and the BoggsMobile below. The car has been washed since this picture but the bus still needs it bad. I will get to it eventually.

Here is where the tent is going up Saturday morning by God's grace.

I had ordered a new 10 foot banner and it was shipped here last week. I went ahead and put it up by the road to attract some attention. 

Bro. Jimmie Radcliffe arrived Wednesday night after nearly 1100 miles from Sapulpa, Oklahoma. We are so glad to see him and he was pretty glad to get here. He has been working like a dog to get ready to leave and he jumped right in and worked hard all day Thursday. It is wonderful to have our Director of Tent Transportation and On-Site Operations on the job! LOL

Thank you for praying for us. I am overwhelmed with apprehension at times but I sense the presence of the Lord to help us. He is faithful!

On The Road Again Newsletter March 2016

Odie's newsletter is going out in the snail mail today. Maybe you can read it here if you click on the picture below. I am not sure it is clear enough to read on here.

Odie works hard on the newsletter and we appreciate her dedicated effort. She is now in her 14th year of writing it. Good job, Odie!

Thanks for reading.

We Have Arrived!

Just a short update today. We pulled out of our desert parking spot Tuesday just before noon and we had a gorgeous drive east on I-10 to Phoenix. The wind was pretty strong but it was manageable and not near as bad as it was on Monday.

I read this morning about some one driving this same route yesterday. They were east to west, going from Phoenix toward California on I-10. They said it was a very boring drive. I guess there is no accounting for taste and every one has their own. We sure love this place though.

We pulled into Desert Cove Assembly in El Mirage to two great surprises. Sis. Carla Martinez and her boys pulled in right after us with ice cold drinks from Sonic to welcome us back home. Thank you for being so thoughtful, Sis. Carla. You make it nice to come back home and the great Mexican food sure helps too!

The second surprise came from a whole lot farther away. Odie was texting Abbey Metzger from Montana and found out that Abbey and her mother were on a long layover in Phoenix!. They are flying to Pigeon Forge for PFYC and routed through Phoenix so they could spend a few hours with Sis. Metzger's sister, Terry

They were eating a few minutes away from El Mirage and Terry was kind enough to bring them by the church and visit with us for a "minute" !!!!

What a great joy!

We met Terry in Montana several years ago at Leah Metzger's wedding and it was good to see her again. It is always a treat to see any of the Metzger clan, especially when we do not expect to get to see them at all. It was a great start to our visit in El Mirage.

Then we unloaded our sound equipment into the church. I am still learning how to use our newly donated equipment and I want to be more familiar with it when we set it up under the tent this weekend. Luke, Levi and Logan Martinez worked hard to help us get it all in place. Thanks boys!

The rest of the evening was spent in fellowship and with food. It can not get much better than that. The rest of the week is more preparation for City Reach. Please help us pray that all goes smoothly.

Thank you for reading.
