A Miracle At Hale Mountain

We had a great week at Hale Mountain near Morrow, Arkansas. Pastor Ronnie Cooper and his church are very gracious people. We has a good time singing and preaching all week long. 

Monday night we had a good prayer line during the altar service and later we found out God had visited that night in a very special way. Bro. Cooper broke his back very severely when he was 21 years old. If I understand correctly, they fused three of his vertebra together in order to repair the break.

Bro. Cooper has had trouble with his back off and on ever since. The last three years He has suffered terribly. The doctors have prescribed more and more pain medicine and it has given him very little relief. He was taking 14 pills each day for pain as of Monday. 

The Hale Mountain congregation gathered around their pastor Monday night and prayed for him. The Lord touched Bro. Cooper and as of yesterday he had not needed one pain pill. From 14 pills each day to NO pain pills for six days! Praise God!

I do not know if Bro. Cooper is completely healed or not but we have been praising God for the relief he has felt. Folks, our God is still able to heal and help today! He is alive and able to hear and answer our petitions. 

I share these things from time to time to build your faith. If God works for others He will work for you! Have faith, friends, that God is mindful of you.

We moved today to Iron Post Holiness Church near Locust Grove and we are starting revival tonight. We are expecting great things from God!

God Bless,
Davy

The Blankenship Family

Yesterday was a great day. We met up with Jeffrey, Rebecca, Madelyn and Andrea Blankenship for short visit. It was so good to see them!

As many of you know, Rebecca is the daughter of Bro. Larry and Sis. Rosemary Landress, our dear missionary friends. Bro. Jeffrey and Sis. Rebecca are also missionaries to Mexico. We are so glad for the way God is using them! Please keep them and all missionaries in your prayers!

Part of being in the ministry is not getting to be with friends as often as you would like. Rebecca and I have been friends for years and it seems that we never see each other enough. I first remember her when I was 4 years old. We have had some grand times together over the last 21 years! I am so thankful for her friendship!!

I am also thankful for the family God has given Rebecca. She picked up Jeffrey along they way and he is now a great friend of ours also! God has given them Madelyn and Andrea and they are precious girls. I love them so much!

Andrea is named after me, we call her "Little Odie". You all know my name "Odie" came from me crawling around with my tongue hanging out. Well, Andrea has her tongue out alot too!! She really is a "Little Odie". LOL

Here is a funnny story. Recently Madelyn told her parents that she knew Odie and Andrea's real names. She said Odie's real name is "Little Andrea" and Andrea's real name is "Little Odie". Poor Maddie, we'll have her completely confused befor it's over.

We had a wonderful time catching up with our friends! We are so thankful That Jeffery and Rebecca let us know they were passing through. We had a delicious meal at Olive Garden with them as well! I forgot to take food pics but I love Olive Garden's
soup, salad and bread sticks. I need a refill right now. If you ever eat at Olive Garden in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Sarah is a great server! She took really good care of us!

Here are pics from our visit.
