Sapulpa Valentine's Day Banquet

Hello friends,

Odie here with a Valentine's Day Report. Last night we had the privilege of being a part of the Sapulpa area fellowship Valentine's Banquet. The banquet is an annual fundraiser for the Sapulpa Youth Camp. It was a fun night of food and fellowship. Dad did a great job speaking and it was a wonderful to see so many friends!!

Thank you to the Sapulpa board members for inviting us to be with you all. We had a great time. The banquet was held in the Kellyville Holiness Church Fellowship hall. It is a beautiful facility. Pastor John Brock  and his church made us feel very welcome. 

I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day, or as I have said in the past National Single Awarness Day. It was a wonderful day for me. It even included some chocolate. Any day with chocolate is good day, especially for a dieter. 

Have a great weekend. I will let pictures finish the post. 

Odie 

 

 

Short Post

Let's Help Finish Another Church

I am a little short on time today so not much of a post this morning. We are preparing to travel just a little bit today to be in position for the Valentine Banquet in Kellyville tonight. It is probably less than 40 miles down there but the work is all the same with the exception of the driving time. 

We have really enjoyed staying in one spot for two weeks even though we have preached at three different churches. It has been a nice change of pace. I appreciate Pastor Leon Rich and the South Mission Church for allowing us to park here a few extra days. Of course, staying longer means we have drug more things out and have more things to put away. That's what I have been doing and need to finish up right now.

I hope you have a nice Valentine's Day. I have been thinking about a nice big Double Big Daddy from Ron's to celebrate. NOT! Maybe next time I am in Tulsa.

Here is something for you to think about.

More Pictures From Youth Rally and Hilldale

We have a few more pictures from the Youth Rally Friday night at South Mission and from our revival at Hilldale. It sure has been a great week with some tremendous services. We are so thankful to know so many wonderful people. God has opened up so many doors for our family and we have been blessed to be in super great churches. These last few weeks are just more examples of that.

I love preaching in places where I find hearts hungry for the Word of God. It is a pleasure to sing and preach to folks when they listening closely and are ready to respond and spend time praying in the altar. God always helps, meets needs and changes lives in that kind of atmosphere.

Youth Rally pictures

We really had a great time at Hilldale this week. Even though we were only there three nights, those three nights were tremendous. Pastor Nathan Conner and his folks responded so good in each altar service. It was wonderful to see God help folks that came to him.

We sure are thankful for all the hospitality from Bro. Conner, his family and his church. God bless you all for your kindness.

We closed there Wednesday night and we are not preaching any where tonight. We had planned to have Thursday and Friday off to rest and then travel to Oklahoma City Saturday. However we were asked several weeks ago to preach the Valentine Banquet for the Sapulpa Youth Camp fellowship so we are busy preparing for that today. 

We plan to drive the BoggsMobile to Kellyville where the banquet is being held on Friday and then finish the trip to OKC on Saturday. Thankfully it is warming up outside so it will be nice to roll the wheels a few miles.

Here are a few more pictures from Hilldale.

Bro. Kuye and Bro. Shobanke 2012

We met Bro. Stephen Kuye in 2007 during our first trip to Nigeria to preach for Bro. Shobanke. Bro. Kuye was an early convert under Bro. Shobanke's ministry and he has worked along side him for many years. He has pastored many years in the city of Ibadan. In 2009 we preached in his church on Sunday morning and then preached a Gospel Crusade behind his church for three nights.

We left the money that visit to complete the roof on their new church and in just a few weeks the roof was completed. 

In 2012 we were privileged to return to Ibadan to preach in the new church. Even though it is not completed it is a beautiful building and is being used to win souls to the kingdom of God.

Much more of the work has been completed in the time since we have been to Ibadan. We have been helping Bro. Kuye and little bit each year to complete his church. Last year he was able to install some of the doors with the money we sent.

I ask Bro. Kuye to figure for me how much money it would take to finish his church. He sent me an email this week with the estimate. I would like to raise the money to complete this church by this summer. 

We are working diligently toward that goal and saving as much as we can. Pastor Kuye and his folks are so close to finishing and I really want to be a part of it. Landmark Christ Mission is built right in the midst of a muslim neighborhood and 80% of the congregation are converted muslims. God is using Pastor Kuye and his church as a lighthouse in the middle of darkness and we praise God for it.

I want to see that go on and prosper. In fact I am determined to help complete their building and lighten their load so that they might focus on winning the lost. Here is what they need to finish.

-$700 to finish plastering the outside walls of the church. The inside walls are finished and ready for paint.

-$2000 for the ceilings to be completed.

-$2800 for the painting the church inside and out.

He said the doors are all completed and the windows are nearly completed. He did not give me an estimate on what it would take to complete the windows so I assume that is taken care of already.

The  church can be completed for $5500. If you would like to be a part of finishing Bro. Kuye's church please let me know. I would like to have the money in my hand by the first of June so that I could send it by Bro. Shobanke when he returns home from his visit here.

I know there is much work to be done for the kingdom of God and this is a small part of it. However I feel like it is a very important part of the work of God. These are people I know. I have witnessed their burden. I have felt their heartbeat. They are working in difficult and sometimes dangerous places and I believe they are worthy of a helping hand.

I intend to help if I can. God bless you for all that you have already done.
