Schedule Change for October 28, 2012

We were scheduled to be in Wichita, Kansas this coming Sunday October 28, 2012. We were supposed to preach the dedication service for Bethany Revival Center's new sanctuary.

The dedication service has been cancelled. The church is still resolving some last minute issues concerning the occupancy permit from the city and have not been able to move in yet.

Pastor DiZazzo called me several days ago but I had forgotten to post the change on the blog until somebody mentioned it is still on our website calendar.

It is near impossible to work Google Calendar from my phone and we have not had Internet the last two weeks except on our phones.

If you know anyone that might have intended to come to Wichita Sunday please inform them of the change in schedule.

We are now scheduled to be with Pastor Rickey Searcy and our good friends at Mt. Vernon Holiness Church in Oklahoma City on Sunday morning. We are looking forward to the Sunday morning service.

Hope you all are having a great week. We are enjoying revival at New Mission.

Special Friend Tammy Ferguson

Tammy Ferguson lives in Riverdale, California. We met in passing on one of our first visits to Riverdale. In May 2009 Tammy let me know that she was keeping up with us via the website.

She had read some of my recent posts and understood I needed prayer. Also she was praying daily for friends of mine that needed it too. I cannot tell you what it meant to me to know she was praying for me even though she barely knew me.

Since then Tammy has become my encourager. She always calls, text or emails right when I need it. I have come to lean on her a lot. I thank God for placing this lovely lady in my life!!!

Here is just one instance where she encouraged me. In August I had several painful days. My legs hurt horribly and I didn't really know why. I have good days and bad ones so I've just learned to deal with it.

One night while talking to Tammy she asked how I was feeling. She asked me to be honest with her. So I told her how I was feeling. Then Tammy said I knew it. God woke her up to pray for me the night before. When she told me the time I realized at that very moment I had been praying hard for relief so I could sleep.

That just reminded me that God really cares for us. He knows when we need reinforcements.

Tammy is a niece to Bro. Don Rich. She is involved in his mission works. Also Tammy teaches a Sunday School class a Riverdale Assembly. I know she has had a great impact on many lives.

So I'm not the only one that she has encouraged and helped.

Tammy I love you so very much!!! Thank you for your friendship!! I am thankful for the privilege to have you in my life!!!!

New Mission Holiness Church

Revival is off to a good start at New Mission Holiness Church near Purcell, Oklahoma. We had a wonderful service last night.

We did not take many pictures as we normally do in the first night but we will try to take several as the week progresses and post them Saturday.

I am working on the Minister's conference sermons from our last visit to Nigeria trying to get them ready for the printer. One of Bro. Shobanke's elders, a medical doctor named Dr. Hunyinbo Kehinde Isaac asked me to put the conferences in book form so they could be more widely distributed there.

I worked several days last week and will devote several days this week to the project.

I am also working on this year's Nigerian minister's conferences and my normal sermon prep so my posts here might be shorter and fewer. Odie is trying to pick up the slack and I think she has a post ready for tomorrow.

Tune in next time to see! God bless.
