Weekend Woundup and Weview 11/5/2018

The weekend report is much like many that have come before it. We closed revival on Friday, traveled on Saturday and began revival on Sunday. It is that incredible sameness that saturates me with wonderful comfort. It means we are blessed to do the thing we desire with all of our heart to do. It means Pastors are still calling, churches are still responding to our ministry and that we are still healthy enough to keep going.

It also means the BoggsMobile is still cranking and transporting us to the next location without too many problems. That is always a plus!

This weekend report is the last "normal" report for a while. For the rest of the year, things will be all over the map. When revival is over this Friday, we will rush toward home, complete our preparations for going to Nigeria and the end of the year sprint will have begun. We are looking forward to it.

Weekend Woundup and Weview

Friday night we closed revival at Redemption Holiness church with a bang. We had lots of friends visiting and that made a good night even more special. May God bless Pastor Leon Rich and all of his folks for their kindness to us.

It was great to have Bro. Galen Cummins, his wife and his mother with us Friday night.

The Millikins were there too. What a blessing!

Oh and do not forget Bro. Terry Cummins.

And Sis. Rachel McCutcheon

Also Bro. Brian and Sis. Stacy Cole came from the Oklahoma City area.

Saturday we wiggled our way out of our parking spot at Redemption and the made the 60 mile drive to Iron Post Church near Locust Grove. The trip included a stop at Flying J in Tulsa to do the work of the evangelist.

Once were arrived at the church, we unloaded our equipment, parked the BoggsMobile and set up the sound. Bro. Webster and some of the men were working on the old church/fellowship hall, removing the floor and trusses, so we had plenty of help.

Saturday evening we drove to Tahlequah to meet Bro. and Sis. Webster at Fish's BBQ. We had eaten there before and we were looking forward to going back. It was delicious and the fellowship with our dear friends was excellent!

Sunday morning was Pastor Appreciation at Iron Post Holiness Church. It was our honor and privilege to help celebrate our dear friends, Bro. Kevin and Sis. Teresa Webster. It was a great service with a terrific meal following.

The cake decoration was awesome!

We had a bunch of fun too!

Sunday night we kicked off revival!

I love preaching to these folks in this church. It was so much fun. I am looking forward to the next five nights of revival.

We had more wonderful fellowship after church Sunday night and wrapped up our last "normal" weekend for a while. It was a tremendous weekend enjoying the blessings of the Lord with our friends. It is great to be alive and to be a part of God's family.

Thank you for reading today.

Beach Cottage Visitors and Plunderers

Hey Friends,

This is Odie checking in from the BoggsMobile. We had a fantastic week at Redemption Holiness Church. It is always good to be with Pastor Leon and Sis. Shawna Rich and their church.

Bro. Leon likes to pick on me endlessly. He always assures me that he only picks on me because he loves me. I say, "Apparently he loves me a lot." I am glad to be able to provide him with entertainment. 😊 Thank God that I survived one more wonderful visit at Broken Arrow! LOL

Today we will change locations, but we will stay in Oklahoma for another week. We are headed to Locust Grove, Oklahoma where we will be in revival at Iron Post. Pastor Kevin and Sis. Teresa Webster are long time friends of our family. We are so glad that we get to be with them and their church family this week. 

Then we will be headed home toward Ohio. My parents will be pulling all of their last minute things together for their trip to Nigeria and then be rushing off. I am anxious to get home and enjoy my Beach Cottage. 

I owe a huge thank you to several people that have helped me while we have been gone. Thanks, Papaw Eugene, for maintaining things, mowing the yard and everything you do at the Lazy OD Ranch. Uncle Steve, you are so good to keep an eye on things for me. Mamaw, I appreciate your help cleaning things up for me. Thanks also to Bro. Jimmy Millikin for mowing my yard! I did not expect you to mow the yard. I am extremely grateful for all the help on the home front!

The Visitors 

Speaking of my house in Ohio, even though I have been gone on the road, I have had visitors recently.  Thankfully they took pictures to document their visits for me.

Dad had to make a flying trip to Ohio last month for a funeral. He stayed in my house and his pictures proved that he made himself at home. I am glad he was comfortable. Did you see pictures from his visit? You can see them by clicking here. I thought his photo session was entertaining.

Then our friends the Millikins were in our area for a couple weeks. I am thrilled they were able to enjoy parking their trailer at the ranch. The house has changed immensely since they last were there during the roofing stage. Mamaw and Papaw made sure that the Millikins could see inside the house. I am excited Bro. Jimmy, Sis. Shauna, Carlie and Landon were able to see my home completed. I was disappointed that I could not be there welcome them myself.

The Plunderers

My dear cousin Deidre and her husband Ben Shoemaker were in Ohio last week for a funeral. They finally were able to see the finished house in person. 

Deidre has had tours via pictures, videos, FaceTime and now firsthand. I am glad that she had the full experience now. She is my cousin by blood and she is my little sister by choice. I supposed that is why she thinks that she gets special privileges to explore things completely. Right now the cabinets and fridge are pretty bare. Pictures show that she had fun plundering and trying out my furniture. 

Well, that is a recap of my visitors and plunderers at home. I am excited to get home soon and check on things myself.

Thank you for spending some time with me today. I hope that you have a great weekend.
