FGBI Choir at Dryden Road

Sunday I attended both services at our home church Dryden Road Pentecostal Church.  It is always a joy to be home with my great church family.  Sunday morning my Pastor Bro. Bennie Sutherland preached a masterpiece.  The young people had a dinner after church.  I forgot to take any pictures!! (Spank Spank)  The food was delicious!!!

Sunday night we had the privilege of having the choir from Free Gospel Bible Institute (FGBI) stop by on there way back to Export, Pennsylvania.  I am so glad I was home to see a lot of my friends!!  They did a wonderful job!!!  Our church was blessed by their ministry.

Final Singing At Sea 2012 Post

Here is my Final 2012 Blog about my cruise.  If you want to know more just ask me when you see me.  I will be happy to talk about it. LOL

These pics are from Thursday night and Friday of the cruise.  The sculptures on the Gala Buffet were amazing!  Friday was our at sea day.  We spent the day exploring a few more place on the ship.  Also Aunt Lily Isaacs Sheri Easter hosted a Cancer Walk.  The top deck with the walking track was the only deck I couldn't access with the elevator.  I was content to sit and watch them from the deck below but my cousin Sonya would not have it.  Thanks To Ben Isaacs, Jimmy Yeary and Ricky Gooch for carrying me up and down the stairs.  Ben pushed me the whole walk.  We had a blast!!  Ben tried to push me into people and down the stairs.  Bro. Keith Undehill had my camera and took some great pics for me.


I hope you all are having a great week!  I am enjoying time with my family!!  I will have some pics of the family in a couple days.

Crusing and Ports

It is Odie here again with even more cruise pics.  Thanks for letting me know you enjoy seeing the cruise pics.  How many pics did I take?  Well, before editing I had over 700 on my camera and 100 on my phone. I hope you all are not wore out with cruise talk yet. I think only one more post after this one and my cruise blogs will be done.

Going through all these pics continues to remind me how amazing it really was.  We left Jacksonville, Florida on Monday afternoon. By Tuesday morning we reached Freeport, Bahamas.  Lisa and I explored the market close to the ship and enjoyed the beauty of the island.  Wednesday our port was Half Moon Cay.  This is a private Island owned by Carnival Cruise Line.  From the moment we got off the ferry we love it. The weather was perfect, the trees and plants were amazing and the Ocean was turquoise blue.  Our Ship was the only ship ported there that day so it was nice to just have our 2,000 people on the island.  Nassau was our final port.  It is a busy place three ship were ported there that day.   Our adventure for the day was going to the Nassau Straw Market.  Friday we spent at sea and arrived back in Jacksonville on Saturday morning.

We also explored the ship.  I think we seen every place open to the public.  It was so peaceful just to sit on the deck and look and the ocean.  The vastness of  the ocean is Awesome.  I love it!!!

These are various pics from around the ship and the ports.
