Tribute to Michael Jackson

7. July 2009 by Pastor P.

I was very sad and shocked to hear that Michael Jackson had died! My feelings on the news when I heard it, were very mixed! I suppose because I had been “taught” that anyone in the secular realm should not be celebrated, therefore why should I be feeling sad?! But, I could not help but be saddened by the short lived yet extremely influencial life of MJ! We grew up with him! His music, singing and dancing touched the world and changed the industry forever! Also, we put on a huge production in our churches, called Heartbreak Hotel, that features MJ as the staring role! My son plays the part of MJ and dances just like him…so I supposed that makes him (MJ)  just a little closer to me! Either way, he was an artistic genious that touched millions of lives and he will be missed! Our hearts and prayers go out to his children and family! In the words of Michael Jackson…The man in the mirror needs to change his ways…gonna make that CHANGE! Please don’t wait until it’s too late…
