“How many loaves do you have?” He asked. “Go and see.” When they found out, they said, “Five – and two fish.”           Mark 6:38 I’m sure a number of you recall the story of Jesus feeding 5,000 people with five loaves of bread and two fish provided by one boy; but just to be sure, I’ll give a quick recap.  Just before this event, Jesus had sent...
