Hi-
Just a little hello to let you know I made a prayer group so that all may pray for each other as well as our own family and friends.
Prayers are the best gift we can give each other and it is a gift from God also. It is our only manner to touch the heart of and communicate with the Divine.
So, feel free to join us and add your own prayers and favorite meditations.
God Bless!
Maria
