The Bishop that preached at the royal wedding thought the invite was a joke. Bishop Michael Curry told Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts, “I got a phone call, and I didn’t believe it,” ... “A member of my staff called and said, ‘They’d like you to preach at the royal wedding ,’ and I said, ‘Get out of here it’s April Fools. You’ve got to be kidding me.’ And it was actually true.”

Presiding Bishop Michael Curry’s rousing sermon was the ultimate Black church experience, especially for the non-Black guests. He quoted Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., referenced the Balm of Gilead and spoke of love to a sea of priceless reactions. “I’ve learned to be able to hear an amen by looking in their eyes,” he said about the quiet audience. “And I was looking in the eyes of people that were there, and they were doing quiet British amen.”
