View Out The Front Window August 21, 2016

For the second time this week a post did not go live until several hours after we published it. We usually try to put up Odie's Saturday Post by mid-morning on Saturday. It went live way late. HERE it is, if you missed it.

Check out our posts from the last week at the links below.

Weekend Woundup and Weview

This was our view out the front window in Manchester, Connecticut Sunday night/Monday morning.

This was our view out the front door at a travel plaza along I-95 near Milford, Connecticut.

We finish up the Anniversary meeting this morning and we will leave for Ohio sometime later today or tonight. I would rather try to negotiate my way out through New York City in the middle of the night but leaving this afternoon may make more sense. We have two partial blocks of city streets to go through to leave the church and they are packed with cars during the night. We will see what they look like this afternoon.

I hope you have a great Sunday.

Exciting Week Ahead

Hey, happy Saturday Friends! This is Odie checking in from New York. It has been great to be back here. It was good to visit Brooklyn Tabernacle on Tuesday night. We enjoyed it very much.

Wednesday we visited the 911 Memorial and Museum again. We toured it back in 2014 shortly after the museum opened. It was overwhelming then and was still overwhelming emotionally this visit. September 11th, 2001 was an awful day and I will never forget the terrible feelings of that day. If you are planning a trip to New York City, this is a must see. Be sure to keep the tissues handy. 

 

We are enjoying a great weekend with Pastor Sunny Philip. It is our pleasure to be here in Valley Stream at Gateway Christian Center! It it wonderful to see friends we met on our trip here in February and I love making new friends!

This coming week is a special week that I look forward to all year. It is Indoor Fellowship Meeting time at our home church, Dryden Road Pentecostal Church. 

It all begins Tuesday evening, August 23rd at 7:00. It goes through Friday the 26th. Wednesday-Friday the services will be morning service at 10:00, youth service at 6:00 and evening service at 7:00. It is all happening at 3201 Dryden Rd, Moraine (Dayton), Ohio.

 

Bro. Dwain Galiher is the scheduled morning speaker.

 

Bro Randy Webb is the scheduled night speaker.

 

Both preachers are wonderful men of God and they are Dryden Road Pentecostal Church favorites. I am looking forward to a wonderful week. You still have a chance to join us. It would be wonderful to have you at campmeeting with us. For more information visit the Dryden Road Pentecosal Church website

Visiting ministers will be preaching too. We will have pictures and campmeeting reports all week starting with Wednesday's post.

Thank you for reading! I look forward to seeing you this week. If you come to service please make sure you find us and let us know you are a blog reader.

Great To Be In New York

Reminder: Dryden Rd. Indoor Fellowship Meeting begins on Tuesday night August 23 and runs through Friday night August 26. There will be meals and day services Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. We hope to be there by Tuesday night and it would be awesome to see you there too.

Great To Be In New York

It is a blessing for us to be at Gateway Christian Center in Valley Stream, New York.

The church is located only a very few miles from where we preached in Queens in February so we are not very far out of the NYC city limits. It is still city and heavy traffic here as far as the eye can see but there are yards and parking lots. Those are two things you do not see much in NYC proper.

Gateway Christian Center is also only 6 miles from JFK airport. That is very convenient. If you want to fly in and be with us this weekend, you will not have far to go once you land. (Grin) We are not expecting any friends from far off but we are excited to see many friends that we met in February. That is a lot of fun.

Pastor Sunny Philip invited us to be here and we are happy to be able to accept his invitation. It was my sincere desire to have City Reach in NYC this summer but that proved impossible to put together in such a short time. However, my introduction to Pastor Philip and this whole trip came to pass because of City Reach. I wrote last week about the providence of God and I love to watch Him work.

We begin this special meeting tonight at 7:00. They will have a baptismal service Saturday afternoon, service again Saturday evening at 7:00 and then we will close with service Sunday morning. The church is beautiful and spacious. We are looking forward to enjoying the presence of God over the next three days.

Thank you for praying for us and thank you for reading as well.
