Hi Phil, I need to install Skype. It would be cool if we could have a prayer session for the EChurch group on Skype. I mean everyone that wanted to participate, and those loving folks over-seas, as well. I know that Donnie Parrett has his prayer group, through Skype daily. I can't wait to get Skype installed again. I haven't used it for years. I can also install it on my loving notebook, as well. That has a video camera. I wouldn't mind putting a Web camera in my desktop computer, either. lol. Thanks.
