Pastor Mike and wife Sally Rosser visited the couple in their Alexandria, Indiana home on Monday evening to pray with them.
“…blessed with a beautiful visit and time of prayer last night from our sweet friends Mike and Sally Rosser. Mike is the pastor who married us almost 14 years ago,” Rory, 49, wrote on Facebook along with a photo of their small gathering.

“People every day who don’t have cancer who are dealt with trials or family issues or whatever it might be … we need Him,” Joey said. “It doesn’t matter what it is, and when we think that we can get by on our own, we’re so wrong.”
