Deer Trail Stadium Crusade

God tremendously blessed this meeting again this year.  We were here two years ago, and He blessed then also.  This year we had a different team with us, and they were very well received!  Jim and Shirley Hayes from White Oak, Oklahoma came with us to prepare the meals, and O.V. and Tommy Keith provided the music.  This was O.V.'s first meeting since March when he had to stop for a while due to his cancer treatments etc.   He is doing great, done a fantastic job and people over and over told us how much they appreciated hearing and singing those old hymns.  
The pictures are of one of the services in the grandstand, and of Jim and Shirley Hayes as they wait to serve the delicious food they prepared.  The Hayes provided a fish fry one evening and it was a tremendous hit!  Attendance for this meeting was really good, and we want to express our thanks to both of the local Baptist Churches for their coming together to support this meeting.  Two years ago, pastor Richard Keith basically put the meeting together, but about a year ago he passed away.  His wife Sharon attended this year and it was good to see her.  This year, pastor Dean Shepherd from Grace Baptist and Pastor Ralph Grosser from First Baptist did a good job of getting the word out about the meeting.   A great big special thanks to Zeb and Sue, Carl and Deloris for making sure we had what we needed and their great support for the work.
As we write, we are half way to Gillette, Wyoming to start a tent meeting there this Sunday.  We will arrive tomorrow and start setting up.  O.V. and Tommy are once again with us and we are looking forward to being with Pastor Doug Rumsey and he folks at Antelope Baptist Church.  Praying we will also see many of the old friends from Westside Baptist while we are there.  

God bless, take care and catch you all later!!!
