Pray for Terri Schiavo
I received this email today. Please visit the sites listed and do as they ask. This is very serious…if we are at the point where a living, responsive woman is deemed unworthy to live and starved to death, and we say and do nothing, we are a nation which deserves serious judgment from God.
