Today I was in Mishawaka shopping, and while Robert was in a Gamestop store, I was waiting outside the store, standing at the end of the curb, enjoying the nice weather. A silver car pulled up and stopped in front of me and the guy inside was just staring at me. Then the window rolled down, and I fully expected to be asked directions. The guy said, “Josh? Josh Petrillo?” I leaned down and there was Matt Nightingale! I was like… “Matt??? I thought you were in California!” I haven’t seen Matt in years. He was my boss at Grace for a short time and we went to college together – both 95 grads. Anyway, how crazy is it that I chose that moment to step outside the store and that he, visiting his parents in Osceola, chose to stop and turn around at that plaza at that moment. Anyway, Matt’s a great guy with a great family. He is a pastor of worship in a much more sunny and warm part of the country. Check out his blog at www.mattnightingale.net and be sure to grab a copy of his new cd… ok, I need to get one of those too!
Awwwwww, Matt N…whata great surprise…we all worked together for a short period of time…lol he and his diet coke addiction and our funny talks about whatever was disagreeable.lol I love Matt and would love to run into him someday again! Glad God wanted you two to meet!
How cool is that? I interviewed with Matt and yourself, as you would recall, years ago and I remember being nervous as all get out. It was obvious to all in the meeting. Matt was so cool though. I always loved his LaLaLa La——ah song. Sigh. Good times. Good times.
