Three Prayer Requests

Three Prayer Requests

Savanna Coffman

My first cousin, Mike Coffman, has a daughter that had a heart transplant yesterday. She has really been through it. Savanna had a heart transplant a few years ago and in recent weeks that heart had failed. They first put her on a heart pump then last week implanted an artificial heart. Sunday night they were told that a heart had become available and by Monday afternoon the heart was in and working good. She has a long ways to go so please pray for Savanna Coffman and her family.

Pastor James Link

Some of you may recognize the name of Pastor James Link. We have preached three revivals for him the last few years including a tent revival on the site of their new church in Neosho, Missouri last fall. Bro. Link noticed severe problems with his heart on Saturday and has been in the hospital ever since. He was scheduled for open heart surgery Wednesday but after a bad night they took him into surgery this morning (Tuesday). (Update: Bro. Link came through surgery well. Praise God.)

To complicate things even further, Bro. Link and his congregation just sold their existing church building and need to be out of it in three weeks. The new building is not ready yet and they have decisions to make and lots of work to do in a short time. Please pray for Bro. Link, his wife and family and all of the folks at Victory Assembly in Neosho.

The Mitch Boggs Family in Missouri

Our friends in Missouri had a fire on their property Sunday morning. They had a large building with a gym and a huge meeting area for their large family. A kitchen and shop building were attached. The fire broke out in the gym building and it is a total loss. The kitchen and shop were badly damaged as well and if I understand correctly they will have to be replaced too.

Their church, Stone Bible Chapel, is just down the road. They had torn down the church and are in the process of building a new church. While building the church they were having church in the gym so they lost all of their church stuff too. Thankfully nobody was injured but this is a great loss for the family and the church. 

They have been so good to help others build and also rebuild after tragedies and I am confident that God is mindful of the turmoil in their lives right now. Please pray for our friends the Mitch Boggs Family.

Revival continues to go well in Weir, Kansas. We are having a super great time with our friends.

Praise Mob in Weir, Kansas

Have you ever heard of a Praise Mob? We had a Praise Mob at Faith Tabernacle in Weir, Kansas Sunday night. About 40 people from Faith Pentecostal in Miami, Oklahoma crashed the service in Weir and took us all completely by surprise. Pastor Mike Stephens and his folks had an abbreviated service in Miami and then drove over 45 minutes to be with us.

They came in after we had started service and totally floored me. I could not believe it when they all marched in. They really surprised me.

This is a picture of most of the folks that came from Miami as a Praise Mob! They were a super blessing to revival! Isn't that amazing?

They sang, worshiped, prayed and otherwise joined right in to help us have revival. I told Pastor Stephens they have put me in their debt for a long time.

We really got off to a good start at Weir on Sunday. We are so glad to be with Pastor James Fellers and all of his people. It has been two years since we have been here and it is nice to be back. We only have three more nights of revival and we want to make the very best of it.

Our travel went well on Saturday. It is about 160 miles from Bristow, Oklahoma to Weir, Kansas. By 4:00 we were safely in Weir and parked next to the church. It was an absolutely beautiful day to travel. It would be nice if we could keep some of that good weather around a few days. Sunday was beautiful too but as I write this late Sunday night the temperature is dropping fast and the wind is really picking up.

Here we go again. Winter is back for a few days. I hope you had a great weekend.

Smiles For Saturday

Revival In Pictures - Friday

Hi it is Odie again.  I hope you had a wonderful week. I have had a fun week here in Bristow, Oklahoma. I have been able to visit with several friends and I have enjoyed it very much. It is hard to believe the week is already over!  

I want to share a couple of smiles with you today. 

You never know what you will find at the mall. I can guarantee that it will probably be interesting. I usually see lots of blog worthy material walking around the mall without even trying to notice. I am going to make a point to capture more of it to share with you. 

In December while Christmas shopping mom and I saw a giant cookie walking through the mall.  Mom said she was not going to chase a cookie around the crowed mall just for a picture. Sadly I could not get close enough to get a picture. 

Back in November at The Florida Mall in Orlando we spotted a lady with a taco on her head. Yes, you read that correctly, a taco on her head. She was a live advertisement for Taco Bell's Doritos Locos Tacos. I love people with a sense of humor!!  I wanted to say, "Ma'am, do you know there is a taco on your head?"

She was great and quickly posed for a couple of pictures. 

If you need some more smile watch the video linked below. It was recorded last Saturday night in Terrell, Texas. It stars 2 and a half year old Ayden Yeary with his uncle Ben Isaacs. Ayden is a sweetheart!

Have a wonderful weekend!!
