Schedule Change

A Memorable Memorial Day

Weekend Woundup and Weview # 22

There is more change in our view this week. The house is taking shape right before our eyes!

We will continue revival this morning at Sharonville Free Holiness Church but we will not be having church there tonight. A dear sister from the church passed away and her wake is tonight. We will resume revival Monday night at 7:00.

Thank you for reading today.

A Good Week With A Good Report

A Good Week

Hey, Friends this is Odie checking in from the home front. We have had a week full of activity and most of the details have already been covered in previous posts. Dad posted a big load of pictures on Thursday of the construction progress.

The house project is making advances each day. Dad has worked hours laying out details and gathering materials. Mom has been working hard on many projects too. She has been running all over and being my voice of reason as we make choices for future purchases for the house. 

Most of the pictures on my phone from this week are of lighting choices and other products. We are trying to nail all of this down so that when we need this stuff we will know what to buy. We have made quite a bit of headway. 

A Good Report

I do have a praise report, Thursday I had a 6 month checkup with the eye doctor. My doctor says everything is looking great!  That is wonderful news. I do not know who was more excited me or my doctor! The Lord has brought me a long way in 3 years! I give all the glory to God. 

We began revival last night with a youth rally. It was a wonderful start to revival. We are anticipating great services to follow. We are thrilled to be with Pastor Randy Brown and the congregation at Sharonville Free Holiness Church. Revival continues tonight, Sunday Morning, then Monday thru Wednesday. There will be no service in Sunday night in Sharonville due to a funeral visitation. 

Thanks for reading. I hope you have a fabulous weekend. I will leave you with a few pictures from revival at Dryden Road Pentecostal Church.

Church, House and Comments

Life continues on in the same pattern the last two days. I have been working on the house during the day and going to church at night. I have been piddling with odds and ends on the house plus preparing for the electrical with Dad. We also laid out the cabinet pattern with a chalk line. The layout will work fine! It was neat to watch Odie navigate through the big openings in her power chair.

Bro. Gary Lee found a roofer to felt the roof last night. It was finished when we arrived home after church and I am anxious for the sun to rise so I can get a picture. That clears the way for us to begin on the inside in earnest!

Dryden Rd. had a great service Tuesday night so Bro. Bennie schedule service Wednesday night to go along with the regularly scheduled Thursday night service. We attended both nights and it was outstanding. Bro. JR Alexander was supposed to preach both nights and he did great as usual even though he did not even get the microphone Wednesday night. It was all really good.

For some reason I only have one picture on my phone from Dryden and it is from last week. It will have to do until Odie sends some in.

This is beautiful little Hadassah (I will have to check on the spelling) Thompson. This is the first time I have held her.



I have had several questions about comments on the blog lately. We love comments and we welcome all the interaction you will give us. We like to here that you are reading and enjoying.

About 100 folks follow the blog by email. You can do that from the "desktop" view of the blog. It is up in the right hand corner. It says "Follow by Email". There are a few steps to go through and then you will receive an email each night if we post that day.

The email will have the text and pictures from that day's blog and it will also have a link to the blog. I captured a screen shot from an email recently. You email will look something like this.



You can read the whole blog each night without ever visiting the blog. That is fine and that is what a lot of people do. Some of you have tried to comment from that email by replying to the email and those comments do not come through. I do not receive those replies at all and do not know where they go. They are probably contributing to the the massive amount of trash in the oceans and some of them are just now washing up on the shore of some previously pristine tropical paradise in the south Pacific.

If you want to leave a comment, you must click on the link in the email and visit the actual blog. The link is blue and highlighted in the email I receive. You will see a place to comment at the bottom of each blog. You write your comment, choose how you want to be identified and then do whatever it asks you to do to prove you are not a spammer.

Then we receive an email and approve your comment. That is it! Now comment away! We really do appreciate your feedback.

Thanks for stopping in today!
