Thank you all for indulging me as I documented the celebration we had for Mike's 25th ordination anniversary. I also thank you for the kind comments.
When Mike was asked if he accepted the call to the ministry of word and sacrament he said,
I will, and I ask God to help me.
He agreed that the holy scriptures are the word of God. When he was asked if he promised to preach and teach in accordance with the holy scriptures his words were,
I will, and I ask God to help me.
He's been a man of his word.
And that is why we were celebrating!
We all enjoyed the stories people told, some tender, some funny.
Cordelia took the microphone to say,
"This is my Grandpa.
I love him..."

And no pastor, if he has a wife, does it alone. A wife can help make or break a pastor's work. I've seen both. In you Mike got the best of the best!
Oh, you are very sweet. Thank you.
