Chloe 3 Months...and Growing

Chloe is over 3 months old now and she has so much personality. She is growing up so fast and we have been so busy we have not posted any recent pictures of our little Angel. We are so sorry, and we are going to try to do better. I know that a lot of our friends and family check our blog for recent photos of Chloe, and you have been disappointed. Here is a recent photo of Chloe, wearing a sailors hat during one of our revival services in Delano. Her red hair is growing and her blue eyes are shinning bright. Daddy and Mommy love her so much. She is our precious little Coco.

50th Church Anniversary

(NOT PICTURED: Rev. Doug Wright)
On September 11-14 we had our 50th church anniversary. We had a great line up of speakers and God moved in a mighty way. Rev. H. Cantrell was the speaker on Thursday night and he did an awesome job preaching. Rev. Ron Mullings preached Friday night and also did an awesome job preaching about "Expanding the Kingdom". Saturday night Rev. James McPhail preached "What is Under the Blood" and did an awesome job reminding us about the power of the blood. Sunday Rev. Doug Wright preached another awesome message closing the weekend celebration. Sunday after the service there was a dinner provided where everyone enjoyed themselves and feasted on unlimited BBQ ribs. This was a time of reflection and celebration, taking time to thank God for what he has done for The Original United Pentecostals of Strathmore over the past half century. Thank you to all who attended this special event and had a part in our celebration.

Revival In Delano

The past two weeks have been very busy and exciting. Two weeks ago Sunday, we preached in the morning for Bro. Allard in Delano, on our way home from Bakersfield where we were visiting family. Sunday morning there was an awesome move of God and Bro. Allard asked if we could come back that evening to minister again. Of course we accepted the offer and went back that evening to preach. Sunday night was a Holy Ghost blow out. God moved in a mighty way and 7 were filled with the Holy Ghost and many others blessed. After the Sunday night service Bro. Allard asked us if we could return for the next weeks services and continue the work that the Lord had begun. So on Wednesday night and Sunday we once again watched as God moved in such a mighty way once again. During Sunday nights service, a woman received the Holy Ghost during the song service. We are so thankful for what God is doing in Delano and we know that this is just the beginning of many waves of Revival coming their way. Bro. and Sis. Allard and family are great friends and we love and appreciate them very much. They pastor a great bunch of saints and we really enjoy our visit every time we get the opportunity to stop by.

Bakersfield Fun!

We have had a lot of fun in Bakersfield lately. We were delighted to visit Chloe's great-great grandma Jewel Condren. This was the first time that Chloe met this grandma and she was very happy to meet her. Chloe also recently had her first encounter with Papa Jr's swimming pool. She loved playing in the water with Papa. Needless to say, they both had a great time beating the heat.

Checking In

Candace and I apologize for not blogging as much lately, things around our place have been a little hectic. We have been out of town a lot recently and this weekend we were preaching in Delano for Bro. Allard. God is doing a great work there and we will be back in Delano this week to continue fulfilling God's plan. More pictures and blogs are coming soon, I promise. Keep checking. We have a lot to blog about so stay tuned.

On the 12th of August Chloe Addison turned 2 months old. At her doctor's appointment Chloe weighed 10 lbs. 13 oz. and is 4 inches longer. She is getting such a little personality. She is laughing and smiling alot more and becoming much more active. She loves her bath time, and getting her out of the bath is quite a challenge. Mommy and Daddy love her so much.
