Pastor Ricky Adams, of the Argo Church of God in Walker County, was struck by lightning after the church’s service on Sunday.
The Argo Area Volunteer Fire Department dispatched to the scene and discovered church members already assisting Adams upon their arrival.
The pastor, who had been hit indirectly by a lightning strike, did not sustain any major injuries and did not even need to be transported to the hospital.
After what is being called a miracle, Adams thanked God that he is okay.
“The Lord had his hand on me,” he said, per WBMA-TV.
The church’s sign for the day read: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.”
