As I was looking for Danielle & help myself, I was inspired by receptionist Shelia Arnold on 7th Ave. Catholic Charities today Mon 6/11/16 & her comments like if U R going to worry why pray & if U R going to pray why worry. I met Danielle (a Mngmnt person) in Walgreens Bethaney Hm Rd Sun 6/10/16 & it is amazing how the Lord Jesus & God our Heavenly Father put us all together at the right place & in the right time. We ALL NEED encouragement & SPIRITUAL connection. Guelda Gamble
