~Strait Creek CNC Revival!~

If you prayed, or attended, THANK YOU!!! 

The Lord really did help us and gave us a wonderful revival at Strait Creek CNC!!  

There was good attendance every night, God helped in the services, and the Lord's Presence was so Sweet!!! 

Local singers sang each night, and Bro. Nate Kline's sermons were anointed of God! 

Without further ado, here are some pics for you! ;-)

I have a friend that recently found these fun treasures...and sent them to me. 

~My Sweetheart and I, while we were dating.  

Incidentally, this tree on the GBS campus, was just taken down last week.~

~Phillip's quartet.~

Mark Stetler, Anthony Webb, Gary Groves, 

Nathan Watkins, and Phillip.

~The night I graduated from College in 1997.  

I was expecting Kimberly and was sooo sick!~

~We recently lost a dear saint of God, and a sweet friend in Mrs. Janet Albertson!! 

Last Tuesday, Kimberly, Stella, Mary, Abigail and I stopped by to see the Albertsons.

We love each of them! When we lived at Bodmann Ave in Cinci, Emily was over at our house a lot.~

~While at GBS for lessons, I ran into my sweet friend Adrian!! <3~

~I ran in to get a coffee to minister to a sweet friend that was hurting.~

~TUESDAY WAS A BUSY DAY...FILLED WITH MUSIC LESSONS, 2 SAM'S RUNS, SHOPPING FOR REVIVAL, 

AND A ALDI'S STOP, AMONG OTHER STOPS.  

We got home around 9:00 PM Tuesday.

(See my cute little helper in the back of the van?!)

~A goody basket for the Mr. Nate, Mrs. Megan, and Kelton Kline.~

~Spring on our front porch.~

~Yours truly and Megan.~

~The first night, Cousin Laura sang a beautiful special that the Lord had given her.

And our family sang the 2nd special.~

~The Lord helped Bro. Nate.

We knew that there wouldn't be too many people at the revival that night, for the area churches have their prayer meeting on Wednesday nights.

But a couple visitors did show up, and so we had 17.~

~We invited some of our church people in for a snack.~

~These 2 right here, are 2 PEAS IN A POD!!

They are both Ornery and LOVE gummies!  

Out of a box of 100 they probably devoured around 70 of them! ~

~Elijah made our parfait for brunch the next AM.~

~The girls and I put the carnita meat on to cook for supper, and then took Megan to Foothills to grab a coffee and then we ran to Wilmington to look at some fun stores there.~

~The Rusty Star decor store was so fun!

I had passed it several times, but it never was open until this time when I passed.~

~Then we went into a Christian Thrift Store.  

I had been looking for an office desk chair for Elijah, for school, and found one for $5.00!  PRAISE JESUS! ~

~Then we stopped by Walmart, to grab a few more groceries I needed, and then ran home to serve yummy Mexican Carnitas for supper, and get ready for church.~

~Josh, Sarah, & Adelynn were able to come for a couple days.  We were soooo happy to have them here for part of our revival.~

~Bro. Nate Kline getting to meet Mr. Fields, the dear faithful man who kept the church doors open.~

~Before service, The kids hanging out on the bridge.~

~We were so excited to have 49 people on Thursday night! 

God's presence was so close.~

~The Wayne Daltons did a great job singing that night.~

~I was so glad that dear Ms. Linda M. was able to come out.  I have known her since I was 18 months old.~

~Our sweet friend Melinda, made this adorable Strawberry Shortcake diaper bag for Sarah when she was around 8 or so.  Now, little Adelynn carries it to church, full of her toys.~

~We had the Daltons in for a snack that night.~

~Such a dear couple that loves Jesus with their whole hearts!~

~Sooo, I was so happy to find this basket for cheap to cover up the dirty stained top of my dryer.~

~Spring touches to the coffee bar.~

~Little basket with adorable miniature white cloth carrots.~

~On Friday, we were so privileged to have our Pastoral team from the CNC come to worship with us.  

Pastor and Grammy, The Ryan Family, and Pastor Paul all came.

PREVIOUSLY, Our record for this church was 50...at a Hobe Sound Quartet service.

On Friday night of revival, WE HAD 66!!

PRAISE JESUS! 

~We teased that it obviously was the KLINES SERVICE that night.

~Andy and Brittany and their family, and Rebekah and Robbie Ryan came to visit before church, and we had LOTS of extra soup, so I convinced them to eat. ~

~We had a good crowd of 56 on Saturday night!~

Bro. Kline preached a very serious sermon, and then we all gathered up front to pray for SOULS on our hearts.~

~Stella finally went to Megan. ~

~Saturday night snack.~

~Stella LOVES to help!  And she does a great job!  

Here she is helping her Mommy empty my dishwasher.~

~Sunday~

Noah told the Children's story Sunday AM.

~And Mary helped him.~

The Lord helped Noah play, "How Deep the Father's Love for us" so beautifully on Sunday AM!

This song makes me WEEP!

~The Lord helped Phillip sing, "We Believe."~

(Thanks to Cousin Laura for some of these nice pics she took and sent me of our specials.)

~Mary made us a yummy chocolate sheet cake.

This recipe is nothing to look at, but is so moist and yummy and not too sweet.~

~On Sunday night, we had 45! 

God gave us a wonderful closing Service, with souls praying around the altar and getting through!!!  

PRAISE JESUS!~

They were in town, from South Dakota, for Mrs. Albertson's funeral.~
