HELP

Due to our new project - trying to relocate. We need your help. We are not sure of our attendance to the GC in August, due to our upcoming move.

(If you want to read more about our ministry changes, go to tombougher.com)

We need to find some RT folks who will pick up the ball and run:
1. We need help planning and executing the RT Reunion in Orlando. The hotel is already reserved via George & Cheryl Cope.
2. We also need help running down donations to help get the McLellans to Orlando and cover their lodging as well. CBC has already set up a collection point and will help.

PLEASE let us know ASAP if you are able to help.
We know that this may be the last RT Reunion.
We will do our best to get there.
Call or E-mail us anytime.

Update from Wes & Carol Mathis

Hey Tom.
So good to hear from you. Boy does this bring back memories. Carol and I have been in missions for the past 14 years in Japan. Eight and one half in Tokyo and presently we are in Okinawa. Having a wonderful time pastoring a military and international church as well as serving as the Asia Pacific Military Field Rep for the A/G. Please let us know where you guys are and what is going on as well. Also add us to the revivaltimememories.blogspot.com as well. I wonder what it is that now causes our hair to look so white in our pictures. Could it be age?
Blessings to you and keep us posted.

A Sad Note from Kathy Arnett - CBC Alumni Relations

Tom,

Here is a short obituary of a RT member. It will come out in this month's E-Newsletter.

Rev. Thomas Roswell Brubaker, Jr. (’53) died October 5, 2008 at the age of 76. He is survived by his wife Emily, a daughter and son and their spouses, as well as many grandchildren and great-grandchildren He was an ordained minister with the Assemblies of God and served as a pastor for over 40 years. He loved music and was a member of the Revivaltime Choir, while a student at Central Bible College.


God's Blessings,

Help The McLellans get to General Council 2009

We wanted to find a way to allow RT members and others to give to an account so that Bro & Sis Mac can fly to Orlando for GC. CBC has graciously made this possible.

Please read the following e-mail:
If anyone would like to give money toward sending the McLellans to General Council they can send their check to “Central Bible College” On the memo it needs to reference “Revivaltime.” We will put it in an alumni account. When the time comes to pay for this trip we will need to know at least a week or so in advance so we can get checks requisitioned for travel, lodging, etc. It will probably be nice to include enough for some petty cash to take care of food and other incidentals.

If anyone prefers to give with a credit card, the school operator can take the information. Have them call 1-800-831-4CBC and tell the operator they are giving toward the Revivaltime project, the amount they are giving, and their credit card information.

God's Blessings,
Kathy Arnett

RT Reunion is a GO!

I just talked with Pastor, excuse me Dr. George Cope and he has reserved a room at the Rosen Centre Hotel for the RT Reunion! We hope that everyone will plan to make the trip to Orlando for this August's General Council. We will meet on Monday, August 3, time TBA. More details to follow. Note: This is not a rehearsal and a concert.

Now, we will be looking for people to help with flight and hotel costs for the McLellans. I will check with CBC and HQ to see if there is a way to make these gifts as a donation. We will make the amounts and totals available as we go.

If you can help with any amount, please let me know. tbougher@ag.org

Our special thanks to George and Cheryl Cope and their staff for helping us set this up!
Blessings,

Brother Mac on Wednesday, December 3, 2008

Here is the latest from Brother Mac. He said he was feeling “fair to middlin” I asked him if that was a Canadian saying, he just laughed. (I think he learned that one hangin’ out in Nixie.)

He is not feeling too bad but is still having some problems with his legs swelling during the day. He said he has had some set-backs and his PSA’s are reading much higher than usual.

Note: He is scheduled to have a medical procedure in January.

Due to his leg problem, he has not been practicing his violin – I wish I knew who in Canada to call and report him for his delinquent behavior.

He felt so bad this week, that he missed an opportunity to be in Sister Mac’s traveling choir, they sang in Willard, Missouri without him. He told me that he sings in the Bass section, who knew? He probably stands on the riser right next to Bill Gaither.

FYI: His legs may be compressed in special socks but his humor is still fresh and full of puns.

Keep praying for Brother Mac. He’s 80 but ready for 20 more good ones. Anybody need a great choir clinician? Call 417.833.1727
