Update 4/9/11- Dothan- PepsiCola, Florida
Any Idea What This Is?
We closed revival for Bro. Parr on Wednesday and headed west Thursday. We had some business to take care of so we didn't hit the road until mid afternoon.
We appreciate Bro. Parr, Bro. Watson and their churches so much. They have been our dear friends for years and their lives have been a blessing to us. We are so glad we were able to be in their area the last two weeks.
The area churches supported the revivals as well. Pastor Jon Isaacs, Pastor Al Loper, Pastor Winfred King Pastor Mark Sims, Bro. Wade Green, Bro Tony Walker and others brought their families and helped in the revivals. That is so encouraging. As I travel and meet more great folks I realize how thankful I am that God has brought so many good people into our lives. I need my brothers and sisters and their fellowship strengthens me.
We arrived at Beams of Light Holiness Church in Cantonment late Thursday evening. (I like to point out that Cantonment is just north of PepsiCola, Florida.) We parked and set up and then met Pastor Philip Deane and his precious family to eat.
Bro. Philip had told me about a great pizza place called Tuscan Oven Pizzeria so that is where we went. It was Sooooo Good! We enjoyed the great food very much but we enjoyed the wonderful fellowship even more. We laughed until we could stand no more.
I worked on the trailer and BoggsMobile on Friday while Kelly Jo pulled things together for vacation. That night we loaded up with the Deane's again and went to Sonny's BBQ. We had more great food, fun, fellowship and hilarious laughter. My sides were sore from laughing so hard when we went inside for the night. Bro. Philip, Sis. Deidra, Shavona and Colton are super great people and we loved spending time with them.
Our long time friends may remember when Odie had a large tumor removed in February/March 2005. It was a very scary time in our lives. We were in revival at Beams of Light for Bro. Philip Deane when all that went down.
We could not have been in better hands. Bro. Philip, his family and his church rallied around us and held our heads above water during those critical days. We will always be thankful for them allowing God to minister to us through them. We will never forget it. Bro. Deane earned the name "Dr. Phil" during that time and we still call him that.
Today we are beginning our scheduled time off. We are spending several days at a top secret, undisclosed, highly sensitive location. We will emerge from our bunker to preach for Bro. Deane on Sunday night but other than that there is no preaching until the following Sunday. We are looking forward to few days of nothing but sleep.
The BoggsMobile will be staying at Beams of Light while repairs are made to the roof. The hail storm on March 27th in Dothan beat the clear coat and some paint off the roof and dinged one side of the trailer pretty bad. Ol' Mr. Cheap Jeep came out pretty well.
We are so thankful Bro. Watson's new church escaped major damage and that no one was hurt. We are also thankful that our insurance is covering our damage. Our premium was due this week and it seemed like a small price to pay.
God bless you all this week. We still plan to post to the blog this week so come back and see us.

Lighthouse Holiness Church, Ozark, Alabama
We are in revival this week at Lighthouse Holiness Church in Ozark, Alabama. This is our second revival for Pastor William Parr and the folks here. It seems like we have been here much more because they are so good to fellowship other revivals in the area. You can pretty much count on them being in nearly every night of revival other than their own church nights. That has been a real blessing to us.
We love Bro. and Sis. Parr and we are excited to be here with them. God is certainly moving among them as he is for others. Praise God for His faithfulness in these last days.
Thank you for praying for us.

Preparation For Tent Revival
Saturday was a busy day. We spent most of the day loading the trailer with the tent, chairs, platform and strapping it all in and getting everything ready to ride. Bro. Donald Griffith brought all the stuff from Haines City, Florida and was a great help getting it all loaded and secured.
Although our first Tent Revival isn't until June, we will be on a westward trajectory until then so the tent and trailer goes with us the rest of the spring. We are so excited about Tent Revivals. We have seven scheduled this summer and one more in the fall. It is exciting to think about the possibilities of all the things God will accomplish! Please continue to pray about these meetings.
We are starting revival for Bro. Parr in Ozark, Alabama and it's time for us to roll. God bless.

Buddies of Mt. Sinai
We have had a great week here in Dothan, Alabama. Thankfully the storms have passed. It was refreshing to see the sun yesterday!
Mt. Sinai Holiness Tabernacle is blessed with several kids. They like to pose for the camera! Dad posted several pics of my buddies on Tuesday. Here are some pics from my phone.
All the kids are my little friends. I wish I had picture from Wednesday. I was in my power chair going down the isle. Hannah was in my lap Breanna, Michael, Abby, Daniel, Ryland,Dallas, and Ashton were all behind me playing follow the leader. When I am in the back by the CD table they like for me to take pics.
We have had several visitors this week. It is always good to see friends.
Have a great Friday!

Another Miracle Baby!
The first part of March I posted about the miracle baby in Richton, Mississippi. We are still praising God for giving Bro. and Sis. Brewer the miracle of little Logan. You can read about it and see pictures HERE.
We heard then that God had also given Bro. Paul and Sis. Tracy Sheffield a miracle baby in Ellisville, Mississippi. Now I have seen him with my eyes and held the miracle in my hands. He is a beautiful baby. You can see Caleb for yourself along with his mom and dad.
(More pictures below)
I remember clearly the night last year that Bro. Paul grabbed hold of faith for a child and would not let go. It was March 26, 2010 on the last night of revival in Ellisville, Mississippi.
God had challenged his heart to demonstrate his faith in God. Bro. Paul was the first one in the altar that night and one of the last ones to leave. Bro. Paul and Sis. Tracy wanted a baby so bad but every avenue was a dead end.
Bro. Paul demonstrated his faith in God by going home and preparing a nursery for their baby. They finally decided to paint their nursery blue. With the nursery painted they settled in to wait on God.
In September they received a call from another county about a newborn in need of a home. Two days later they brought Caleb home from the hospital and placed him in the nursery they had painted by faith. Caleb was seven days old and they have had him ever since.
Isn't that awesome? They had faith in God for a miracle. They demonstrated their faith by preparing a nursery for their baby and God honored their faith with a miracle.
Here's an interesting side note. I don't know if you can tell from the pictures but little Caleb is a spitting image of Bro. Paul. Isn't that cool?
Bro. Paul and Sis. Tracy are only a step or two from having permanent custody of little Caleb. We are praying and believing that the rest of the process will be smooth and timely.
Praise God for working miracles in the lives of those that trust him. If you have a great need in your life today dare to believe God for a miracle! Our God is able to do it if you put your trust in Him. Trust God to do what is best in your life. You may not understand Him or comprehend what He is doing but Trust Him!
