Key in 29667 for a prayer

You’re stuck in a rut, feeling quite dry. Your problems seem insurmountable. You’d like to pray, but for some reason, you’re afraid to try. You’re even almost afraid to ask for help — and so you’re caught between a rock and a hard place. There’s almost nothing you can do...

Or, something great has just happened. You’re elated and start sharing it with everyone. In the midst of all the happiness, you are moved to ask people to pray with you in thanksgiving. How do you catch the moment?

Get hold of your cellphone and get ready to text!
