Waynesville, Ohio Tent Revival

I posted an announcement  in April of our upcoming Tent Revival in our home town of Waynesville, Ohio. Here is the flyer below.


Boggs Family Ministries is hosting the Tent Revival in cooperation with Dodds Pentecostal Church/Pastor Kelly Rogers, Corwin Pentecostal Church/ Pastor Phillip Hoskins and Anchor of Hope Church/Pastor Bill Lamb and associate Pastor EJ Lamb. I just heard yesterday from Pastor Kevin Allen from Calvary Pentecostal Lighthouse in Middletown and they are going to cancel their midweek service and join us in revival as well. We are super glad to have these Pastors and churches on board for revival.

Excitement is building for Tent Revival and I am probably more excited than anybody else. I can not wait to see what God is going to do under the Blue and White Gospel Tent in Waynesville, Ohio. I am anticipating several people getting saved and others being healed, blessed and delivered. I know that God is going to help.

We want to invite you to come and be a part of tent revival all that you can. Revival will begin with setting up the tent on Saturday May 23rd at 9:00 AM. We will need all the help we can get so that the tent and chairs go up smoothly. If we have plenty of help, we should be completed in less than two hours. Bring a buddy, bring a friend!

Revival Services will begin Sunday night May 24th and run through Friday May 29th. We will start each night at 7:00 PM. We would love for you to join with us in revival and bring folks with you. If you have been trying to get a loved one or friend to go to church and they have not went with you, they may come to the tent revival. IF they come I know that God will help them.


Bro. Jimmy and Sis. Shauna Millikin will be joining us and we are very excited about that. Bro. Jimmy should roll in some time Friday and he is scheduled to be at Corwin Pentecostal Church in service Sunday morning before we begin.

If you are from the Waynesville area then you probably know where the Dodds Church is on Old State Route 122. The tent will be set up on the property that adjoins Dodds. The address is 3215 Old State Route 122, Waynesville, Ohio. Parking will be in the church parking lot.


If you are coming from the Cincinnati area or farther south you can
-Follow I-71 North to Exit 28. 
-Turn RIGHT at the end of the exit. 
-Follow that 5 1/2 miles through some lights until you come to a light at Rt. 42. 
-Turn RIGHT on 42 and go a little less than 4 miles to a flashing light at old 122. 
-Turn LEFT on 122 and tent is about .3 (3/10) miles on LEFT. 

OR you can follow I-75 to Middletown Exit 32 at Hwy 122. Go east on 122 about 10 miles and tent will be on the RIGHT.

If you are coming from the Dayton area or farther north you can
-Follow I-75 south to Exit 36 at Hwy 123.
-Stay on 123 to the red light where 123 T's into 122.
-Turn LEFT on 122 and go about 6 miles.
-The tent will be on the RIGHT.

We sure would love to have you in tent revival. If you can not come please pray that God will have His way in lives all over Warren county!

Thanks for reading.

Weekend Wound Up and Weview May 18

This weekend end wound up post is going to be very heavy in pictures since we has such a power packed weekend. I hope you enjoy all of the pictures.

As I mentioned in Friday's post we closed revival as planned Thursday night at Lydia Mountain Chapel. It was an outstanding finale service. Praise God for all of His help. Before the final service Kelly Jo and I took a drive Thursday afternoon.

We had been across the mountain to church and back several times but we had not taken the time to visit one of our favorite places in the world since we had been in Virginia. The Skyline Drive is 105 miles long and runs the length of Shenandoah National Park in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It is an awesome drive but we only had about two hours so we drove about 35 minutes to Big Meadows and back.

We entered Skyline about 7 miles from the church at the Swift Run Gap. From there it is only 15 miles to Big Meadows. The speed limit is only 35 MPH and there is so much to see there is no reason to go any faster.

There is a $20 per car National Park entrance fee to drive the Skyline Drive and it is good for seven days. The annual pass is only $40. We hardly ever pay to enter a National Park since Odie is with us most of the time and she has a Golden Access pass. Since she stayed behind we had to fork over the money this time but it was well worth it.

We saw one black bear cub scampering across the road and lots and lots of dear that day.





















We decided to rest on Friday and travel to Bristow on Saturday. I checked with Pastor Brent Gabbard to make sure it was OK to stay over another day and it was. I really appreciate Bro. Gabbard and the Bible Holiness Church allowing us to park there. It was relaxing to remain in the same place for nearly two weeks.

Friday evening Kelly Jo and I went to Harrisonburg for a nice meal. We sure appreciate the gift cards from Frankie, Pat and David Shiflett. We really enjoyed a very fine meal due to their kindness. Odie decided to continue resting at the bus, but we took her a treat back later.





After dinner we pointed the Green Machine north on I-81 for a sunset drive. We exited on Hwy 211 and cut through Luray back over to the Skyline Drive. We entered the Skyline at Thornton Gap which is about 20 miles north of Big Meadows. That means it was about 35 beautiful miles and lots of stops at overlooks down to the Swift Run Gap exit.

I wish pictures could really tell the story. It was a stormy sunset and it was nearly breathtaking. I understand if you want to skip over some of these pictures but we could not bear to delete many of them.
































What does an evangelist do on his day off? He drives nearly 100 miles to see God's beauty, that's what! We were gone a total of about 6 hours and enjoyed every moment of it.



Saturday it was time to leave Bible Holiness and it was a little sad. But the next revival at Bristow was calling our name so we had to roll the wheels. The weather guessers were calling for rain in the afternoon so we made the trip in the morning.

We pulled into Bristow Assembly about 12:30. This is the first time we have taken the bus over the mountain from Elkton to Ruckersville but it was a piece of cake.







After we set up and hooked into electric we drove about 1/2 mile to our favorite little Italian place called Tony's. It has been 4 years since we have been here and it was as good as we remembered. Of course my diet has changed drastically since then but I enjoyed the salad I could eat.






We started revival Sunday morning with Pastor Ken Taylor and his great folks. We had two really good services with an especially good prayer line and altar service Sunday night. We appreciate the Taylor's inviting us to be with them again. We enjoy every time we get to come.



We plan to be here three more nights and then we will make a big jump to Ohio by God's grace. We have big plans for later in the week that range from tent washing and set up to barn roofing. It should be exciting.

I hope you had a super great weekend.
