Packed Up Tonight In A Snow Storm

Our final night of the Prophecy Conference in Goodland, Kansas ended with snow. We had about an inch of snow fall during services. The men of the church helped us pack our equipment. Mary, Patty Rosado, and Mary Middlebrooks all cooked us a super Thanksgiving feast today at Pastor Cliff Middlebrooks home. We had a wonderful time of feasting and fellowship at their home today. It was great.

 

 

 

World's Largest Easel

 

We visited the World's Largest Easel here in Goodland, Kansas this morning. This is one of six in the world. There were 7 but the one in Japan was destroyed in a bombing run during World War II. The easel is 80 feet tall and has a Sunflower painting by Van Gogh on it. The town of Goodland raised $150K to build the easel out of steel weighing 45,000 pounds.

Welcome to Colorado

 

We thought we had to drive over to Colorado this morning since we were so close. Goodland, Kansas is 17 miles from the Colorado border. That makes 8 states we have been in during the past few days. We drove throught 7 states (and 3 Time Zones) going from Gaffney, South Carolina to Goodland, Kansas last week-end.

A Sleep-in Day

We were exhusted from the past few days and slept in this morning. We feel much better.

I think Bro. August Rosado was at his best tonight. I really enjoyed the prophecy message tonight. I hope to have it uploaded to SteveBrownMinistries.com before I go to sleep tonight. I think it's worth listening to again.

Our First Day of Broadcast in Goodland, Kansas

I think we did a good job today with the broadcast. At least as good as I know how to do it. We had great services. When we left Gaffney, South Carolina last Friday morning I was doubtful that we would be ready for both services today, but the Lord saw us through and we made it just fine. I am pleased with the DVD that we produced today.

Arrived Safe In Goodland, Kansas

We completed our journey to Goodland, Kansas this afternoon about 3:00 p.m. I spent the rest of the day setting up our equipment at Bible Baptist Church. Some of the men from the church met us there and helped greatly in unloading our van. I worked until about 10:30 p.m. wiring and tweaking things. I think I am ready for the Sunday morning service.

Our Thousand Mile Journey

 

We left Gaffney, South Carolina about 7:00 a.m. EST and it was not long until we encountered snow in the Great Smoky Mountains.

 

I don't understand why Mary was complaining about not being about to see the road.

 

It was a beautiful drive. In some places there was about an inch of snow on the ground. We loved it.

 

Close to sundown we drove by the "Gateway to the West".

 

About the time we thought we had it made getting through St. Louis we encountered the five o'clock rush-hour traffic leaving St. Louis.

 

We arrived at Robby, Rachel, Sophie, and Mady's house about 9:00 p.m. CST to spent the night. This is Mady.

 

Sophie is trying to get my camera.
