      "She quietly but fervently prays for that good Samaritan in the church who can uniquely reach out and relate to her husband in a Christ-like way to lead him to the church where he can feel welcomed, needed and loved."
      There are many faithful daughters of Heavenly Father who bless our lives. May we follow Christ's example by being sensitive to their needs, as "our actions affirm to our noble sisters: "Daughter, be of good comfort.' "
