Taking the Tent Down In Elba, Alabama

Make sure you see This Post with Pictures of the Tent Revival.




The tent came down without a hitch on Saturday. I would have liked to have taken it down Friday night but it was wet with dew. I had to wait until noon to give the sun time to dry it out.

While I was waiting I organized the trailer and strapped everything down. Kelly Jo and Odie were preparing things in the BoggsMobile to ride.

Bro. Isaacs and his folks came and worked hard and in a little while it was all packed away. They also helped move the trailer into position to hook up to the bus and helped load the Green Machine.

Then came one of the hardest parts of any good revival, saying goodbye and driving away. I hated to leave Pastor Jon Isaacs and his family and church.

I know that folks tease us evangelists about preaching a few nights and then running to our next revival without a backward glance. But I love seeing people find Jesus and watching the change he makes in their lives. I love it when a church is so in love with Christ that they can not help but tell it.

When that happens I want to fall in next to that Pastor and see what the Lord is going to do. But I am called to be an evangelist so I must say goodbye and drive on.

If that sounds a little dramatic so be it. I have always been over the edge emotionally. Maybe I am getting worse as I grow older. Lol

Anyway, here are some pictures. I will try to catch you up on our current location tomorrow.

Tent Revival In Pictures - Elba, Alabama

We have had a wonderful tent revival in Elba, Alabama this week. God has touched several hearts in the community and we are thankful.

The final service tonight was great. It was a fitting end to a great revival.

I appreciate Pastor Jon Isaacs and the Zoar Holiness church for sensing the need to reach out to the city of Elba. God bless you for your burden and your kindness to our family.

Pastor Richards and the Deliverance Tabernacle and several other churches were a great blessing to the meeting as well.

We packed up the chairs, lights, cords, carpet and Bible stand after church tonight. It is too wet to take the tent down tonight so we hope to do that Saturday about noon.

We have scheduled Monday-Thursday off. We hope to slide into a campground over toward Mississippi before dark on Saturday evening.

We plan to pull into Richton, Mississippi on Friday full of energy and ready to do it again.

Now I will let the pictures tell the story of Tent Revival in Elba, Alabama.
