Sunday at Anchor of Hope

Sunday we were at Anchor of Hope near Lebanon, Ohio. Pastor Bill Lamb and his congregation have been very kind to us though the years. I have actually known them all of my life. Bro. Lamb and his family were a big part of the church I grew up in at Dodds until he became Pastor of this church nearly 37 years ago. I grew up around their older boys and still consider them all good friends. It is always a privilege to be with them again.

Both services were very good with folks around the front receiving help from the Lord. It was especially good Sunday night and I believe God changed some situations. I know people are struggling right now and the weight of the bad economy makes it even worse but I sense folks are able to believe that God is going to help. If we can believe that God is able then all things are possible. It may be impossible with men but nothing is too hard for our God.

The weather has turned a little cooler and it is raining a whole big bunch here in Ohio but it could be much worse. It could be bitterly cold this time of year and that would turn all of this rain into snow. I will gladly take the rain and day time temps in the 50s. Oops, I just checked the weather on my phone and now they are predicting 40s. But at least I'm not shoveling snow yet. Praise God for the small things...right?

God Bless you all!

The BoggsMobile at Anchor of Hope

Anthony Abner sang  a lot at Dodds Church while I was growing up. I always wanted to sing like him. He and his dad, Reuben, were outstanding singing together. Bro. Anthony sang Sunday night! Wow! That guy can still sing!

They dedicated several children on Sunday morning. We ended up being related to at least two of them!

More Pictures From Sharonville, Ohio

Posted Sunday

We only had four nights for revival in Sharonville at the Free Holiness Church of God but God surely blessed and helped in each service. The altar service each night was wonderful. Praise God for His grace. I appreciate Pastor Randy Brown inviting us to Sharonville. We look forward to returning soon.

Last night we had a big feast with the Boggs clan. I will try to post pictures from that tomorrow. Today we are supposed to preach both services near Lebanon, Ohio at Anchor of Hope for Pastor Bill Lamb. We always enjoy being there. 

We brought the BoggsMobile with us to Anchor even though its only a short distance. It was parked at Dodds Church while we made the western swing by plane so it had been in one place for five weeks. Although I started it and let it run when we came back from Arizona it needed to be driven. The batteries were so weak that I had to charge them before starting. Plus I don't want the folks at Dodds to think I am homesteading over there. They are so kind to allow me to park when I am home so I sure don't want to take advantage of their kind hospitality. We will move back over there after the weekend.

Pastor-Bro. Randy and Sis. Wendy Brown

Sis. Margie Howard received so much help in the altar Tuesday night. She came into church Wednesday night with a permanent smile! We are still praising God for helping this dear sister.

This is the choir having their picture taken. I slipped in on the action from the side...

A Black Friday Message From Hank!

I received a text message from our ol' buddy Hank the West Plains Church Dog to let me know he survived Black Friday. Here's what he said...

"Black Friday wipes me out. At least I beat the crowd. 

Hank"

From the looks of things I would say he got out of the mall just in time. These are just a few of the headlines from Drudge Report Friday morning....

BLACK AND BLUE FRIDAY

Woman pepper sprays other Black Friday shoppers 'to gain an upper hand'...

'Competitive shopping' turns into chaos...

VIDEO: Mayhem over $2 waffle maker...

Two women injured in brawl...

Woman shot, robbed in SC after midnight shopping trip to WALMART...

NC police use pepper spray to break up melee...

VIDEO...

GUNFIRE ERUPTS AT MALL...

Sound like a boat load of fun doesn't it? NOT! I think I will wait a few days even if I have to spend a dollar or two more...

Thankfully the text from Hank proves that not everyone was sprayed with pepper spray, involved in a brawl, beat up over a $2 waffle iron, robbed at gunpoint outside the store or arrested. Some found their bargains, saved a ton of money and made their way safely home and took a long nap.

Frankly I stayed home and took a long nap myself. Friday was our first day with no travel or no preaching in a long time. I took full advantage of it. Kelly Jo and I have a few days of scheduled time off in a week or so and Friday we practiced for it! lol

Hope you are safe...

Thanksgiving in Hillsboro, Ohio with The Morgan's

Yesterday we ate Thanksgiving dinner with Kelly Jo's family down below Hillsboro, Ohio and what a feast it was! The turkey was delicious! Well everything else was good too but I focused on the Turkey! We laughed and cried and praised God for His goodness to us. It was a very good day. All of Kelly Jo's immediate family were there plus an Aunt and a few cousins. Below are a few pictures from the day and of course... I started with the Turkey....

We attended service at our home church last night and it was good to be home. Bro. Bennie preached and it was like sweet music to our ears. His Thanksgiving message didn't tickle our ears at all but it was a blessing to our hearts. I love it when the preacher deals with the issue at hand whatever that issue might be. I am thankful for a great home church and a great Pastor.

Hope you all had a good day of thankfulness too...
God bless you,

Davy
