She had never been on an airplane before, and was traveling all over the world sprinkling him here and there. #2 Meg was sitting next to a woman who began talking about her family, and she didn't have the energy to keep up with the conversation. She had grown to love and appreciate each of them: Mara, a fifty-year-old wife, mother of three sons, and soon-to-be grandmother; Charissa, a married and newly pregnant graduate student; Hannah, a pastor on a nine-month sabbatical from ministry in Chicago. #3 During the retreat, Meg had learned how to pray for others, and she was praying for them every day.
