- BARBARA COPELAND:

Wanted to know how important is prayer in your life? Does it play an
important role in your life?
- JESSIE STREATER:
-
Oh yes it does. Before I can get in my car and drive off, I've
got to pray. I might not make it to the corner without that prayer. I
get up each morning I just feel like I need to thank God because today
wasn't promised to me. That's another blessing
that was given to me.
