Tent Revival and Braum's

Tent Revival and Braum's? It doesn't get much better than that!

We had a wonderful service to kick off revival under the tent in Miami last night and then capped it off with a trip to Braum's for hamburgers and ice cream. Wow! What a night.

It was near 100 degrees when we started service at 5:00 but there was a nice breeze and the humidity was about 35%. It was not near as hot as it could have been and every one was thankful. God is mindful of us.

Bro. Jimmy and Sis. Shauna Millikin were anointed from the first word of their testimony and song. God used Bro. Millikin to bring us to a wonderful prayer line and the Lord blessed tremendously. I appreciate Bro. Jimmy obeying the Lord and I appreciate the Lord moving among us. We are expecting good testimonies from the service last night.

I have several projects that need to be completed on the BoggsMobile and the trailer the next few days. Our front air on the bus has not been working correctly and I have been told it is the circuit board. I have a new board so I plan to be up there as the sun comes up to replace it before it gets too hot.

The batteries for the bus were delivered Saturday and I will begin the prep work for that job tomorrow. It is a big job with a huge learning curve. All the power has to be completely off to the bus so I am hoping to finish in one day. I am apprehensive about the whole thing so if you would pray for me I would be thankful. I plan to wade in Wednesday about daylight.

Later in the week or maybe next week I will be mounting some brackets to the floor of the trailer to make tying down the car easier. I am sure I will have pictures of all the work.

It's going to be a busy week!

Hot Under the Tent.

I have been posting in the evening the last few days so if you missed yesterday's post you will find it HERE

It is HOT in Oklahoma this week!.



Leave it to me to pick the hottest week so far this year for Tent Revival in Miami, Oklahoma. It is forecast to be a scorcher this afternoon and the next few days.

I know from experience that it can cool down to a tolerable level with a little wind and a slight reduction in temperature. Please help us pray that it will not be as hot as they are predicting. Just the threat of record temps will often keep some folks away. God certainly knows what we need but He has instructed us to seek Him and to ask Him and to make our needs known to Him. I will be doing that a lot the next few days and I am asking you for your help.

We had a great service this morning inside the church here at Faith Pentecostal Church. God visited with us and help us in a sweet and powerful way. We are expecting that to carry over right into the tent services this evening.

It is time to eat a small bite now and then venture out into the sun to prepare for service. I always set up the sound system at least two hours before church on the first night in order to be ready for surprises. They start at 5:00 on Sunday nights so it is about that time.

Thanks for reading...

Tent Goes Up in Miami, Oklahoma

Tent set up went extremely well in Miami, Oklahoma. Pastor Mike Stephens and his men worked hard and well and in no time at all the tent was up. Bro. Jimmy Millikin was also there and working hard as well. Bro. Colton Cravatt, one of the young men traveling with us for a few weeks, had his mom and dad her and they  were helping too. We appreciate all the hard work. 

We had a great tent revival here in Miami last year and we are expecting more blessings from the Lord again this week. We will have the first service Sunday evening at 5:00. It is supposed to be very hot the first couple of days this week. Please pray that it will be cooler in the evening.

I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Everything is laid out the stakes are in the ground and it is time for a break!





We had just enough wind blowing to make it interesting...


















After the tent was up we went for a nice Mexican lunch. It was very good.



This is what I ordered...



Bro. Jimmy said that he made the mistake of ordering the same thing I did!
