For the first time ever, we were able to go to the Vichy Church of God Campmeeting in Vichy, Missouri. We met many new saints (from places we never knew there was a Church of God!), received many blessings, and (we hope) we were a blessing to others. It's wonderful to see God's children get together, and realize that IT (God's church) is bigger than we could ever imagine. Bro. & Sis. Campbell, may God bless you even here on earth for all your care and hard labor for the church there in Vichy. It is greatly appreciated. All you saints that were at Vichy, STAY ENCOURAGED to PRESS THE BATTLE ON!
Bro. Glenn Woods - Vichy COG van driver - even willing to miss services in order to pick up saints flying into St. Louis airport (2 hours from Vichy). This brother does MANY trips during the campmeeting. The old tabernacle, that was used for the main campmeeting services all the way up until 1992!
Inside the tabernacle
You can see a cabin in the distance - back in the old days, these were owned by families who came to the campmeeting every year.
There is only this one cabin left standing.
Bro. Carlos (isn't he glad he doesn't have to stay in there?)

These lanterns were the only light inside the tabernacle.
The old church (used by the local saints until 1992) - now converted to the girls' dorm.
