Mike's Moment

I might as well keep on going with the Rockingham crew.  Next up is Mike's moment.  Mike Sykes is the pastor at First United Methodist Church in Rockingham.  I am sure he is diligent in his preparation for his Sunday services.  

Today was the exception.  Dressed for toaday's services at the community center, we waited for Yvon Pierre to pick us up.  When the truck arrived, I noticed that Butch and Yvon were having a quick conversation.  Butch was walking toward the truck with a devilish smile on his face, and I said "you are about to tell Mike that he is preaching today aren't you?"  

So with no preparation, Mike shared the story of Peter exiting the boat and walking on water, as long as his faith was focused on Jesus, he was successful.  He said that we too, had to exit the boat, put our faith in Jesus and allow him to guide us on this trip.

The entire service was beautiful.  I'll cover it in detail when by backlog of entries is posted.  I would tell everyone about Allison's benediction, but this is Mike's moment.
