Jim Black- thanks

In all the excitement and anxiety that precedes the throttles getting pinned.

I know you guys will agree how nice it is when he walks up a has a peaceful word or handshake before a race.

Thanks Jim

Jim Black is without a doubt one of the finest men that I know. Can't say enough good things about him. Our team always has a moment of prayer with Jim before each race. It is something that each of us look forward to.

Re: Jim Black- thanks

I am a non-racer, but have been an official with an offshore race club for many years. My husband and I had Jim marry us on the beaches of St. Pete Beach. He did a wonderful job. Even my strict Catholic in-laws loved him. Jim, if you're out there listeneng- THANKS!!

I will never leave the dock without Pastor Jim's arms around my team in Prayer! Thanks Pastor Jim. I told him Sunday I really needed "some" and he was right there next to my boat waiting for me before the race.

Re: Jim Black- thanks

Jim's comments in chapel on Sunday were around the Winston Churchill quote "Never Give Up". Running second all day but running hard payed off when Wildride's engine had a momentary loss of enthusiasm and we were able to pass them.

Never, never, never ever give up.....how timely.

Thanks for all you do Jim.

Jim's pre-race visit is the most welcome point off every event. The MOJO team drops all for his wisdom. Thank you Jim. Nice thought and post Mark!

Jim has even forgiven me (Godfather) for my sins. Always ready to talk with words of encouragement and peace. Thank You Pastor Jim.
