So anyway, I'm joining the disciples in their cry: "Lord, teach us to pray."  Obviously there's plenty to pray about for myself, but I want to pray for you guys as well.  I want this to be a place where you can post your prayer requests and know that others are lifting them before the throne of God. 

Lord, teach us to pray.
