Weekend Woundup and Weview May 21, 2018

I hope you had a good weekend. Ours was tremendous even with less than perfect weather by some standards. It was a mostly rainy weekend, but capped off with an absolutely beautiful feast of sunshine for Homecoming Sunday. It was a gorgeous day blessed with wonderful services, great fellowship and a tremendous meal. Awesome!


Saturday evening we caught a glimpse of sunlight.





Sunday morning started brighter and built all day.



This is our second Homecoming revival for Pastor Brent Gabbard at Bible Holiness Church. We love being here with him and all of his fine people. They love to have church and they do Homecoming up right. 

The church and visitors responded so well Sunday morning and God helped us all in the altar. It was a great Homecoming in more ways than one.

My girls captured some great pictures from the day and we have a bunch of them below.

Bro. and Sis. Gabbard have become grandparents twice since we were here last.








The fellowship hall was decorated very nicely and the food was wonderful.





















There was no afternoon "Homecoming" service so we all had a chance to rest a bit before service Sunday evening. That service was good as well. It is a wonder that the service even went passed the choir singing.

We were surprised by friends, Frankie and Pat Shiflett. We met them three years ago on the other side of the mountain and Frankie was able to attend one night last week at the Rock Church. It was so good to see them Sunday night. Thanks for coming, friends.






















We did some driving and "hiking" in the national park nearby earlier, but I may have more on that later in the week. That pretty much wraps up our weekend. Thank you for visiting us today.

Our View Out The Front Window May 20, 2018

We are in beautiful Virginia this week and we are enjoying the view. This is our view out the window at Bible Holiness Church in Elkton, Virginia.


Today is Homecoming Sunday at BHC and we would be thrilled to have you join us at 11:00 AM. The preaching may not be good enough to suit you, but I know you will enjoy the view from on top of this hill!

Here are all the links to our posts from the last week. Please take a moment to check them out.







Thank you for dropping by today. I hope you have a blessed Sunday.

Pursuing Virtue

Hey Friends,

Happy Saturday, I hope you have had a fantastic week. We have been thoroughly enjoying our time in the beautiful mountains of Virginia. We have one more week to enjoy this state. We plan to savor every moment.

Revival starts tomorrow with Homecoming at Bible Holiness Church in Elkton, Virginia. We are excited to be here through Friday with Pastor Brent Gabbard and all our friends at BHC! I am anticipating great things from God this week. You are invited to join us for revival if you are in the area. It is always great to see friends.

Pursuing Virtue

Several weeks ago I learned about a new blog called Pursuing Virtue. It is a collaboration of five Christian ladies to encourage and inspire all of us ladies to pursue virtue. 

They are writing some good posts and bringing in special guests to write at times as well. It has already been encouraging to me.

These are the collaborators at Pursuing Virtue.


I have known Anita Miles virtually all my life. She is the lady in the front in the picture above. She told me about the new venture as we were visiting a PFYC last month.

You can read the vision for Pursuing Virtue by clicking hereYou can also click here to see a video they posted about their purpose of the blog.

“Pursuing Virtue is a collective effort to share our thoughts on inner beauty. We also want to discuss the scriptures behind the standards and grow in our faith together, all while creating a community for godly women. We are all in this pursuit together and we hope this blog will unify, encourage, and inspire Godly women to live boldly and unashamed.”

They usually have a new post every week. You can sign up to be notified by email every time there is a new post. I have really enjoyed each installment and I wanted to pass this site on to our millions of readers. 😀

You can visit Pursuing Virtue by clicking here. Please take a moment to check them out. Pass on the word to your friends who may also find encouragement there. We are not in this journey of life alone. It is wonderful to have Godly inspiration along the way. 

Thanks for stopping by to visit today. I am thrilled you took a moment of your precious time here with me. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. May God blesses you.
