Revival In Pictures - Bristol, Virginia

Adjustments to Mile Markers

I adjusted a few things here the last couple of days. They were mostly behind the scenes, but one change is adding a Contact Us page. We had our email address on our original website but when we folded that site into this one, there was no email address listed here. You will now find that on our Contact Us page. Of course, you are always welcome to leave a comment too.

Revival In Pictures

Today is time for Revival In Pictures. We are having a wonderful time at Grace Pentecostal Holiness Tabernacle in Bristol, Virginia. Bro. David and Sis. Brenda Horton and Bro. Michael and Sis. Tonya Switzer have always been so kind to us. We are thrilled to be here with them and all of their folks.

When we first came here years ago they were leasing the church building. They bought it soon after and each time we are here they have made great improvements. It is beautiful and neat inside and out.

We have had good response in the altar each night. I love preaching to people that love to hear preaching. Bro. Horton and Bro. Switzer are both tremendous preachers and it is obvious their folks have been trained to soak it all in and respond.  It sure makes my part of the service a pleasure.

I hope you enjoy our Revival In Pictures.

We have one more night and it is a youth rally. I am sure it will be good, but I can not guarantee the preaching will be good. We can hope I guess.

Thanks for dropping in.

A Prayer Request And A Special Visit Ahead

A Prayer Request
Some of you know Pastor John Eaton from Evansville, Indiana. Bro. John has labored in pastoral ministry faithfully along side Sis Debbie for many years. They are really good people, some of the best. We have known them for a long time and Full Gospel Mission in Evansville is one of our favorite places to go.

Bro. John has also served on the board of Boggs Family Ministries since the first day we incorporated over 10 years ago. He is a good man with a passionate thirst to lead people to Christ and disciple them in Christian living. He has been a huge encouragement to our family.

I am telling you this because Bro. John needs God to touch him. He was in a car accident a few weeks ago and has struggled with recovery in one aspect. He is in the hospital again and receiving special treatment. It seems to we working and we are praying for complete recovery. Would you help us pray?

A Special Visitor

Pastor Shobanke arrived in the USA last week and we are anxious to see him. He started in Iowa and will work his way from place to place until he meets us in Ohio in about four weeks. 

It is going to be great to visit with him in person. When he is in the states we talk on the phone more than usual, but face to face is much better.

The last time we saw Bro. Shobanke was last year during the last few days in May. He was in the states and I flew him to Ohio so he could watch folks frame the house we are building for Odie to live in.



He grinned the whole time he was there. I think it might have been the happiest I have ever seen him. He was as thrilled at least as much as Odie was. You may remember that Bro. Shobanke and his church gave the first $220 toward the house. That is several weeks wages for a working man in Abeokuta.

He has given more over the course of the last year and has prayed diligently that what God has begun, He is able to finish. He is very much looking forward to walking into a nearly completed house. His visit will be exciting.

We are planning to visit him in Nigeria this year as well. We usually go near the end of November or early December and that is the plan this year by God's grace. We are looking forward to it.

They are needing to expand the GoodNews Christian School again and we hope to help with that as much as possible. We will also take a suitcase of school supplies and money for other ministry needs as we are able.

As always, we never ask for help for our expenses to Nigeria, but if any one would like to help with these or other projects in Nigeria you are welcome to do so through Boggs Family Ministries. 100% of what you give will go toward the intended purpose in Nigeria.

Revival here at Grace Tabernacle in Bristol, Virginia continues to go well this week. God blessed us in the service last night and we have two more nights to go. Thank you for praying.

We are always glad when you drop each day.

Vintage View Vednesday - Bristol, Virginia Tent Revival 2013

We are having a wonderful revival this week at Grace Tabernacle in Bristol, Virginia for Pastor David Horton and Pastor Michael Switzer. These folks are easy to love and even easier to preach to. The week is flying by too fast.

Since we are in Bristol this week, today's Vintage View post is from our first tent revival here in May five years ago. It was raining when we put the tent up and raining when we took it down but we had a powerful move of God under the tent that week.

I love looking at these tent revival pictures. I hope you enjoy Vintage View Vednesday today.
