View Out The Front Window 1/27/2019

This was our view out the front window at Walmart at Huntsville, Texas.


This was our view out the front window for a few hours on I-45 just north of Houston, Texas.


This was our view Friday morning.


This is the view out the bus window right now. It is similar to the previous view, but about 15 feet to the right.


This is our view out the window of the evangelists quarters in Sweeny, Texas.


Here are the links to the latest posts.







Thank you for stopping in to read our Mile Marker today. May God bless you with a great start to a brand new week.

The Boyd Sisters

Hey Friends,
This is Odie reporting in from Texas. This week we had a great four days with our friends in Gainesville at House of Prayer! I thank God for meeting us in revival!

Sweeny, Texas is our current location. Revival began last night at Lighthouse Full Gospel. We are glad to be here with Pastor Larry Lamb. He and his church people always welcome us so warmly!

Some of you know that we had a little bus trouble on the way here. Thank you for your concern. We are all OK. I am sure that Dad will fill you in Monday.

The Boyd Sisters 

I have been going down memory lane since our recent visit with the Boyd Family in Sterlington, Louisiana. Bro. Tracy and Sis. Shea have been our friends for a lot of years. We do not get to cross paths with them often but we love it when we get to see them. I remember them visiting us in Ohio before their family grew to include 3 beautiful daughters.  

Dayla, Darah and Kaylee were my friends from the beginning. We have several great memories of our times together both in Sterlington and other places. They were my helpers when they were little. I also remember them loving to walk with my crutches or try out my wheelchair. It has been a pleasure to watch them grow from precious little girls into wonderful young ladies! Below is a look into the archives from a past trip to Sterlington.

Early on each of the Boyd girls demonstrated a love for God! They have used their amazing talent of singing for God, leading others in worship. Their music ministry has encouraged many people. I am so proud of them and I am honored to count them as my friends.

It was so good to be with them again last week. They are now wonderful women. Our visit came to end way too quickly. I had a blast with them and I hope to see them again soon.

I am extremely grateful for the blessing of friendship and it is wonderful to know that I have friends for the long haul. I deeply value my special friendships! The Boyd girls are some of the sweetest friends a person could wish to have on their friend list. Dayla, Darah and Kaylee, thank you for being my friends. I love and appreciate you all!

Dayla and Darah both married their Prince Charmings in 2017. I am so thankful that God blessed them with good husbands! Bro. Tracy is proud of his Son In-Laws.

Thanks for stopping by to visit with me. It is a pleasure to have you here. I hope you a wonderful weekend.

Revival In Pictures - Gainesville, Texas

It was a wonderful few days of revival at the House of Prayer in Gainesville, Texas. We had five services and every one of them was really, really good. The attendance from the church and visitors from the community was incredible. Plus we had friends from Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, Sherman, Texas and Ft. Worth, Texas. It was wonderful to see everyone.

Our friends from Wynnewood, Oklahoma, Bro. Larry and Sis. Rose Landress were not able to come for service, but they met us for lunch Wednesday. That was an awesome treat! It is always good to see them and spend some time with them. They would have stayed longer, but their home church was in revival too. We understand that for sure.

Pastor Dennis King and his wife Sis. Judy welcomed us with open arms. They are so thoughtful. They do their best to anticipate our every need while we are there and their hospitality is second to none. The way they embrace our friends and family that comes to see us makes it even more of a pleasure for our friends to come.

We closed revival Wednesday night and left that night to avoid the daytime traffic nightmare conglomeration that is the DFW area. I will have more on our travels when we wrap up the weekend next Monday. You do not want to miss that post. We have not had this much fun since the hogs ate my brother.


You come here on Friday for Revival In Pictures, so here you go. Please enjoy a glimpse of the revival we enjoyed so much! Thank you for dropping in.
