Happy 100th Post!

To our wonderful prayer community--

Today is our hundredth post. I say "our" because this really is a place for everyone. I wish that you could all see the emails that I get thanking us and asking for prayer. It wouldn't happen if it weren't for all of you. I know it's pretty quiet around here, but I can see you in the feedburner. We are here; we are praying, and people are finding comfort through incredibly difficult times. Thank you.
