Cedar Creek Holy Church of God

It rained Sunday night and off and on through Monday morning and early afternoon so we were a little slow coming out of hibernation. I did not sleep near as late as I would have liked to but I did rest good. More folks came in yesterday. It looks like a good crowd is gathering for the campmeeting.

Some of the folks that come every year have a fish fry on Monday and they did again this year. I ate some of the crappie fresh out of the fryer and it was very, very good. I was a little busy eating with both hands and passing the hot fish back and forth so I did not get any pictures.

We went to the Monday night fellowship meeting at Cedar Creek in Citronelle. Pastor Jamie Holcomb was preaching and the Lord helped him preach. It was really good and God was speaking to us all. We were blessed to see lots of friends from all over the country. 

It was a great service and they served Lasagna and Fettuccine after church. THAT was worth the price of admission if there had been any price!

It seems that the people from the Cedar Creek church and the Whatley church are all excited about the upcoming tent revival. We plan to begin March 31st which is Easter Sunday night. We had a great time and a move of God last year and I believe it will be even better this year. I am sure that some of the folks did not know what to expect last year but they are super ready this year. I can not wait to see what God will do.

Today is the beginning of the Allentown Campmeeting. It kicks off at 10:00 this morning. Odie will be listing a run down of all the preachers and we will be posting some pictures each day. That will probably be the extent of our blogging each day this week. 

I hope you enjoy.

Ouch!

I posted late Sunday night about our weekend. You can read it HERE.

I think sometime that folks think I am being overly cautious when I will not pull in places with the BoggsMobile that I have never been before without checking it out first. I have had some that were a little impatient with me when I would not pull in or park places that somebody else pulled in easily. Number one, the BoggsMobile is built a whole lot closer to the ground than a motorhome and weighs about 20,000 pounds more. Number two, who is going to take responsibility for the damage and tow bill? I thought so...

Sometimes folks are beeping the horn and pushing me out of the way but when I feel pressure like that I slow down and take my time. EVERY time I have done something under pressure while pulling a fifth wheel or driving the bus I ended up in a mess. Yes, every time.

It is so easy to drag the belly of the bus or drag the back end as well. There are lots of places we could turn in and I just shake my head and drive on by. It is not worth the hassle, tow bill or damage it could cause. I may make a terrible mistake driving next week but by the grace of God I am not going to do it on purpose.

That is why I was so sick when I saw this picture on Gypsy Journal RV blog. That could very easily be me in that driver's seat!

That hurts so bad. Here is what he had to say about it.

I proved that you can drive a bus up a hill that is steep enough that your front tires are on the ground and your rear bumper is buried on the pavement, but your drive wheels are off the ground. I also proved that while you can drive yourself into that predicament, you can’t drive back out of it. That requires the assistance of a very, very large wrecker, several police officers to direct traffic, a haz-mat crew to clean up the 36 gallons of antifreeze that pours out when the wrecker snags your bottom heater hose, a host of curious onlookers, and the news media.

 Double Ouch on that one! That could ruin your whole week.

Be careful driving out there!

A Wonderful Weekend

Saturday I was blessed to spend some time with my good friend, Bro. George Brimm. We kicked around while washing his trailer and truck, helping others get parked and eating lunch. It was a good day and it was so nice to visit with Bro. and Sis. Brimm.

We spent both services Sunday with Pastor Donald C. Williamson and the great folks at Tanner Williams Holiness Church. I felt called to preach Sunday morning and I hope it sounded at least half as good as it felt.

Sunday morning we had Bro. Jeffrey and Sis. Rebecca Blankenship and their girls with us in church. They are missionaries and are here for the Allentown meeting. It was good to be is service with them and to eat lunch with them too.

Speaking of lunch, Bro. Williamson took us to a new catfish place in their community. It was very good but we forgot to take any pictures. Well, we did get one picture at the restaurant. Bro. Jeffrey loved carrying his wife's big pink purse.

Tomorrow (Monday) we plan to attend the Monday night fellowship meeting at Cedar Creek and then the meeting will start here at Allentown on Tuesday morning. I know it is going to be good.

I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story. Thanks for reading. God bless you all.
