Exciting Easter Week At DRPC

 Hey Friends,

This will be a busy but grand week. There is lots of activity at our church. You are invited to join us at Dryden Road Pentecostal Church, located at 3201 Dryden Road in Moraine, Ohio. 

Tonight, Tuesday, at 7:30, Bro. Trey Brock and his family from Oklahoma will minister. We love Bro. Trey, Sis. Allison, Elli and Ivy!

There will also be church on Thursday and Friday nights. Bro. Lynn Head from Georgia is scheduled to preach. I know we will have great services. 

On Easter Sunday, we will celebrate our risen Savior! Dryden Road Pentecostal Church will hold services at 10AM and 6PM. 

I just thought I would invite my friends to church. Visitors are welcome at DRPC! God has been blessing us, helping us and changing lives! I am expecting great things to happen this week!

See you tomorrow.

Weekend Recap 4/14/25

Hey Friends,

Thank you for dropping by to visit us! I hope you are doing good today! Well, here is a recap of a busy weekend. 

Mom mowed the yard for the first time this season. It had been too wet to mow for a while, but she caught it dry enough for a trim this weekend. 


Uncle Tommy came and did the weed eating for us. We appreciate his help immensely. 

I had a fun girl's night with some of my church friends on Friday evening. We all brought food on a board or tray. I brought snacks from Bucee’s. We played games, laughed and felllowshipped.











Mom went to dinner with Renae, Jacqueline and Albany Coffman. She had fun catching up with them! Looks like Albany enjoyed the ride!


Here is Mom’s food from Cheddars, and she said it was delicious. 


Saturday afternoon Gran and Papaw came to see us. We enjoyed visits to Alcapulco and Sams Club.







Sunday was filled with two services at DRPC. Also, with food and fellowship with friends. 









This weekend is a wrap. I hope you enjoyed the highlights. It was a good weekend. We are looking forward to a great week ahead.

See you later!

Tennessee Family and Friends Fun

 Hey Friends,

Hello from the home front. We were gone Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. 

This time, it was time for a road trip with Mamaw and Papaw to visit Friends. We had a great trip! The travel went smoothly, the fellowship was superb, and, of course, we had delicious food along the way!

I failed as a blogger in documenting everything. However, I do have a handful of pictures from our short trip to share.

The weather was gorgeous. On the trip down there, it was terrific to see spring in action! Redbud trees lined the road, and we enjoyed the sunshine.


Mamaw and Papaw wanted to visit a long time family friend, Gladys. It was great to see her once again. Tuesday afternoon we met her for dinner at Cracker Barrel.





Dad often loved to quote the words of wisdom from Garfield the cat. I saw this towel in Cracker Barrel and knew he would have loved this one! It would have become part of his regular vocabulary!

Wednesday we traveled to Oak Ridge Tennessee. Where we met up with Bro. Herman, Sis Margaret Woods and Sis. Sue Nicholas. We enjoyed a great lunch with them at Shoney's. That is where I started forgetting to take pictures.

Before heading back to the hotel. We did stop for ice cream at Dairy Queen. I can not spend too much time with either one of my Papaws without an ice cream.

I did take some pictures of DQ to show Papaw Danny what he missed. 




We took a drive to see some of the beautiful scenery along our route. Here are a couple pictures that Mom captured of Papaw Eugene. I thought they were wonderful!



Wednesday night we attended church at Beechfork in Wartburg, Tennessee. It was great to be in service again with Pastor Herman Woods, and all of our precious Beechfork friends! We love those dear people like our family! They have been so instrumental in our lives over the years.

Thursday morning it was time to point the car toward home. We took our time driving home enjoying scenery in Kentucky. 

The car magically found its way to Sonny’s BBQ for lunch! Yes, the food tasted just as good or even better than it looks! below our pictures of mine and Mom's meals.



The company was even better! 


I love my Mama!


I always have to take a quick picture of Sonny’s sweet barbecue sauce to send to my Uncle Danny Morgan.  He loves it! Well, it is one of my favorite barbecue sauces too.


That is a full recap on this week’s travel. I hope you enjoyed a peek into our week. See you tomorrow.

Oklahoma Friends And Fellowship April 2025

 Hey Friends,

Thank you for dropping by for a visit. I hope you stay for a while!

Yesterday I wrote about the Golden Celebation we attended Saturday in Oklahoma. Click here to see that recap.

Today, I have the rest of the pictures from our trip. Visiting Oklahoma gave us an excellent reason to see the Mayhans! 

Bro. Bruce and Sis. Priscilla have made many trips down the road to visit us countless times! It has been rarer for us to see them at home. We contacted them when planning our trip. They were going to be home. Plans began to take shape. 

First, we flew from Dayton to Oklahoma City with stop in Atlanta. Both flights were great. We love flying with Delta. Their company makes most travel days so smooth. 

It was a beautiful day for flying and pictures. Here are the pictures I captured during our travel.


















The Mayhans kindly picked us up from the airport on Thursday night. They made sure we had dinner and got us settled in the hotel. 



Friday was a day of adveture. They took us on a driving tour of their area of Oklahoma. Mom and I greatly enjoyed spending time with our special friends!

Food was also high on our priority list of the trip. It was exciting to eat at the Mayhan’s local favorites. Here is our pictures from Friday. 











We also enjoyed the opportunity to fellowship with Tyler Mayhand and family and Zach Mayhan and family. I was enjoying the visits so much that I neglected to take pictures. The fellowship was precious. 

Bro. and Sis. Landress also came by to visit with us too. We loved being with so many fabulous people. 

Saturday was party day. Before and after the party the Mayhans continued to be phenomenal host and tour guides.



Sunday was time to travel home by plane. The Mayhans were up way to earlto help us make our flight. 

I am so thankful we made this trip. It was amazing to visit friends! It was a great encouragement to all of us. 

See you later!
