Work Day And Travel Day

The Millikin's with Landon on Sunday.

Yesterday was a work day and a travel day. Bro. Jimmy Millikin started early packing the bearings on the trailer. With six wheels to pack it made for a long day in the Oklahoma sun. He worked so hard.

I did not know if or when the bearings had been packed on the trailer. I hated to pull it to Montana in a few weeks with out it being done. I would hate to find out the bearings were dry in the middle of Wyoming.

Bro. Jimmy did a great job and I appreciate it very, very much. With new tires and new grease it should be ready to go.

We left Claremore about 4:00 in the evening and drove into Missouri to a campground. We have scheduled three days off during this long run of tent revivals. I knew we would need the rest and I was right. I love what we do and I usually feel so good that I keep right on running until my girls drop. I am learning and I am trying to do better. I plan to do as little as possible until Friday morning.

We have sporadic Internet so I imagine you will hear from us each day. We plan to pull into Miami, Oklahoma sometime Friday. I hope to lay out the stake line Friday evening, raise the tent Saturday morning and crank up revival Sunday night.

God bless you all.

Baptizing Under The Tent!

Wow! The last night of Tent Revival in Claremore ended with a bang! What a service! Praise God!

Pastor Darrell Meadow called for a prayer line before turning the service to us. It was tremendous. God was helping folks and we were rejoicing.

Afterward we had a good altar service and then the baptismal service. When all was said and done over 30 people were baptized under the tent. Some one told me later the number was 38.

Most of those baptized were already saved before now but some were saved during tent revival and many made new commitments. We praise God for every one. It was a wonderful service.

All the pictures below are from the baptizing. It was too dark to take pictures while taking down the tent.

The tent did come down well and we had plenty of help. We can not do this on our own and the Claremore people really jumped in good. Thank you all for your hard work.

Today is a work and travel day. I will explain tomorrow. God bless and enjoy the pictures. I was singing and taking pictures so I did not get pictures of everybody.

Baptismal Service

Is that a pool under your tent? Well, sort of...

Today it is a baptistry. Pastor Darrell Meadow wanted to baptize his new converts under the tent. He had some that needed to be baptized and hopefully some that have prayed this week will join in too.

We will have Sunday School and church inside this morning and then we will have the baptizing as part of the final service under the tent tonight. We are super excited about it!

Come join us if you can.

God bless all of the Fathers this morning. Happy Father's Day!
