More of Odie’s September Ohio Visit

Hey Friends,

This is Odie reporting in for this October Saturday. We are in Arkansas thru tomorrow. I hope you are having a great weekend. Thank you for stopping by to visit with me. 

I was able to spend a week at home. I shared my travel day to Ohio two weeks ago. Last week I posted about the wedding of Jonas and Kylee Boggs. Click here and here to see those posts. 

The wedding was the main reason I made the trip home. I was thrilled to be home for a week to see family and friends. Wheelchair issues and other things hindered some of my plans while there. But I am so glad for some great moments! I have some pictures to share with you today to wrap up my trip. 

My Aunt Theresa and Uncle Jay helped me so much while I was home. I appreciate them so very much!


Mamaw, Papaw and me. 


It was fabulous to see both sets of my grandparents. They both came to visit me and bring lunch to me!

Friday night I joined Uncle Steve and Aunt Karen's family at Papaw’s barn. We celebrate my cousin Isaac's 30th birthday.

Alcapulco salsa, oh  it was delicious. 



It was great to have Alcapulco! Thanks to Papaw Eugene for making sure I had my Mexican food!



That concludes this trip home. I love my family! Thanks to everyone for helping me get where I needed to be and that I was well fed!

Revival In Pictures-Russellville, Arkansas

Today is Revival in Pictures. I appreciate those who tell us you love days with lots of pictures.

We have been to Parker Hill Holiness Church in Russellville, Arkansas before but this is our first revival in Russellville. We are so happy to be here. The parking is easy, the people are friendly and kind and the services have been wonderful.

We have preached revival for Pastor Michael Brandon several times at two churches over a space of nearly twenty years. The Lord has brought him home to pastor and being with him and his family brings us a lot of joy. They are an exceptional family.

The church folks have opened their arms to us and received us warmly. We love to sing and preach each night and watch God working in the altar. We have been blessed. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
