Weekend Woundup and Weview #19

Thank God for another exceptional weekend! You never know what is going to happen in a Pentecostal service but if God is going to have His way, it is going to be good! We were in three services this weekend and all three were very, very good!

The first service was Youth Rally Friday night at Faith Church near Salem, Kentucky. Bro. Ashton McDonald was preaching and we were singing a song with the HPC choir. All the churches sang good, Bro. Ashton preached good and the altar service was very good.

It was rainy and miserable in Hodgenville when we left Friday afternoon and stayed that way for most of the drive. Not long before we arrived at Faith the sun came out and it was a welcome and beautiful sight!

Who says we are staying in one place this month? It was about 170 miles one way to Faith from HPC so we drove nearly 800 miles this week including our round trip to Ohio. I hardly ever drive that much in a week while preaching every night. 😁

It was great to be with Pastor Israel Sanders and all the folks Friday night. Here are a few pictures from the Youth Rally

Pastor Sanders and his folks recently remodeled the sanctuary at Faith. It looks really nice.

There was a Sunday School Picnic scheduled at a park for HPC Saturday and also a 5K walk. The rain and cold prevented all of that but they brought the picnic potluck into the fellowship hall at 1:00 PM. We had good food and great fellowship but we did not take many pictures. These are the only two we got.

Saturday night we had a practice with an ensemble made up from four young couples in the church. It was a productive practice and they sang great Sunday morning. We are having a lot of fun with this.

This little one did not participate in practice but I think he enjoyed it.

The services Sunday were outstanding! Sunday morning was awesome. Bro. Webb preached so good Sunday morning that it carried right on through to Sunday night. The altar service was wonderful both services.

That wraps up another weekend. Thank you for tuning in today.

Weekend Woundup and Weview # 18

We moved the BoggsMobile Friday so the church could remove the church bus out of the bus barn. We parked out of the way so they could reinsert the bus and then we moved back into our regular position Saturday.

So technically this is a different view for 24 hours than we have had the last two weeks. That is what I am sharing with you this week. 

Our new view out the front window at Hodgenville Pentecostal Church.

We are expecting a great Sunday and wonderful things from the Lord.

Thank you for checking in today.

The Gift That Lasted Years

Hey Friends,

This is Odie reporting in again from Hodgenville, Kentucky. Our second full week here was action packed. The Music and Ministry Month continues. It has been a lot of fun. We are getting better acquainted with people and making new friends in the process. I am enjoying our time here greatly. It is an extreme privilege to work along side Pastor David and Sis Genell Webb. 

 

You may remember me writing of my appreciation of the Webb Family last year. This is an amazing Godly family and I count it an honor to call them my friends. You can click HERE to read the post about the Webb's in January 2016. My admiration and respect for this family continues to grow. 

Thank you Bro. David and Sis. Genell for inviting our family to be apart of this special month at HPC. I am thankful that you allowed me to tag along with my parents. I love you all and the wonderful people of HPC!

A Great Gift

As I am typing this I am listening to Enlighten on XM Radio. I love XM radio. I know today there are many avenues to hear your favorite music and programs. I enjoy several different ways of listening to music. I still listen to CDs, I download songs and podcasts to my devices, and when I have wifi I listen to Singing News Radio, formally Solid Gospel Radio. You may live in an area where you have a local southern gospel station. I encourage you to listen to those stations too. 

I received my first XM Radio for my 18th birthday from my parents. It is close to the top of my all time favorite gifts I have ever received. Thank you again, Dad and Mom. I have been an XM subscriber all this time. I was in the first million subscribers. For me this is a gift that has lasted for years. Many weeks I am busy and do not get to listen very much. But I like the times I get to listen a lot.

I have been a radio junkie since I was a little bitty girl. I have spent many, many hours listening to radio and calling in to answer questions and win prizes. When we started traveling it was difficult to tune in radio stations a lot of places we went. XM was a great addition! I can get the same stations from Coast to Coast. It is worth the money to me. 

The best change to XM since I have been listening was the addition of 24/7 southern Gospel on Enlighten. I requested a southern gospel channel for a long time. I know I was not alone in this endeavor. 

Several years ago it looked like they would pull Enlighten from their channel line up. Many people called and wrote XM begging for them to keep Enlighten. We were down to the wire when they announced their decision to keep the channel. I am so glad they changed their minds!

I have 3 favorite XM Channels. You can click on the channel names for information on my favorite channels. Enlighten, Radio Classics, and Fox News

Enlighten is Channel 65, Radio Classics is channel 148, and Fox News is channel 114. If you you need more information on XM Radio click here. I know many of you probably have XM in your cars. It is a great thing to have for road trips!

Thanks for reading. I hope you have a fantastic weekend.

This Week In Pictures - Week #2 At HPC

Thank you for the overwhelming response to the posts this week. The posts from yesterday, Wednesday and Tuesday nearly broke our measly records for page views. Thank you for reading and sharing what we write with others.

We are winding down another great week in Hodgenville, Kentucky and we have pictures to prove it has been exciting. The individual and family singing and music sessions during the week have been very good and the service Wednesday night was outstanding.

Wednesday night after church we drove to Ohio. Kelly Jo's mother had surgery Tuesday so Kelly Jo wanted to check on her. While I was tending to house business, KJ and Odie ran to Hillsboro and back to see the Mogans and make sure her Mom was OK.

There was not as much to do with the house as I would have liked since the block layers did not start as promised again. The rain was pouring down when we left Ohio Thursday afternoon so I am not sure if we will stay on schedule or not. Hopefully they will be able to start today.

This is a pictures post so it is time to bring them on. I will start with this neat picture of the Green Machine parked in front of Hometown Pizza. It was daylight when we parked but we parked it in the perfect position to reflect the sign. 

I would let a pizza place wrap the Green Machine in advertisement for a little green in my pocket. I would love to see Krispy Kreme wrap the BoggsMobile!

Now here are some pictures from the rest of the week.

Here are a couple of pictures Kelly Jo took at her Dad and Mom's place in Hillsboro Thursday.

That is our week in pictures. Thank you for stopping in.
