  1. I presume that most of us were unaware of this story, but it is in fact awesome and it is true. 43 years ago there was a Communion on the Moon: July 20 1969. Two human beings changed history by walking on the surface of the Moon. But what happened before Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong exited the Lunar Module is perhaps the most amazing well kept story of our time. They took Communion on the Moon and gave thanks for God letting them have safe travel. It was almost like we were in God's back yard so to speak. We felt a drawing sensation, like we were really close. Buzz wrote about it six months after his return to earth. The book he wrote, was entitled, "Everything you always wanted to know about God but were afraid to ask". Aldrin was a elder at his church in Texas during this period of his life and knowing that he would be doing something unprecedented in human history, he felt he should mark the occasion somehow. His minister at the time helped him think of what he wanted to do while he was there on the lunar surface. Communion was the thought that most fit the moment because giving thanks to God was heart felt. The two of them brought together the wafer and a tiny bottle of wine to carry on his mission. After he and Armstrong had been on the Lunar surface for a few minutes, Aldrin made the following public statement: "This is LM pilot, I'd like to take this opportunity to ask every person listening in, whomever and wherever they may be, to pause for a moment and contemplate the events of the past few hours and to give Thanks in his or her own way". He then ended his radio communication and there, on the silent surface of the moon looking out into the vast darkness behind them at other lights and planets and knowing God throne was there somewhere and he was listening with a big grin on his face. It was almost as if they could touch the face of God. 250,000 miles from earth, he read a verse from the Gospel of John then they knelt and took Communion. Here is his own account of what transpired that day. During the blackout, the time between earth and orbit, I opened the little plastic package which contained the bread and wine and got it ready. The craft was steady so I poured the wine into the chalice type vessel made for this trip our church had given me. In the one-sixth gravity of the moon, the wine slowly curled and gracefully came up the side of the cup. Then I read the scripture, I am the Vine and you are my branches, whosoever abides in me will bring forth much fruit. Apart from me you can do nothing. I had intended to read my message over live air but Nasa requested that I didn't do that. Nasa was already embroiled in a legal battle with Madelyn O'Hara, the celebrated opponent of religion and prayer. She started a frenzy about Apollo 8 being sent up and circling the Moon on Christmas. Buzz reluctantly agreed to their wished even though it was not right. The two of them had Communion there on the Moon while looking at the most gracious sight man will never conquer. It was at this time in the history of mankind that the war on God was started in the United States with this one woman before Congress and got her way. Now pause for just a minute and look at how things have changed for the worst in the years since. Could you stand upon the surface of the Moon knowing that you are in a place that God allowed you to see and not be excited and wonder how close you were to Heaven.
