Just as I began our Christmas Eve service last night, the electricity in the church failed.
No one could get the power back on and make the lights work. It took a while, but finally the ushers found some candles and placed them around the sanctuary.
After the long delay I reentered the pulpit, shuffled my notes, and muttered, “Now, where was I?”
A tired voice called out, “Right near the end, Pastor!”
