    A prayer for healing

    Hello everyone, I know there are much more urgent and worthwhile things to pray for, but if you would, please put in a small prayer for the healing of my tooth! I'm afraid I may need another root canal :( I hope that's not the case. Thank you!

    Hi - I've seen some talk about a women-only section but I can't seem to find it...do I need to ask someone for access? I'd like to join in, if I could. Thanks!
