Dial a Prayer
Dial A Prayer, this is Jeff.
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.
I'll put you on hold and get
right back to you.
Hello, Eileen?
I'm so glad you called.
Yes, He answers all of your
prayers in His own way.
But remember, with God,
all things are possible.
Dial-a-Prayer, how may
I pray for you today?
Oh, such a discomfort.
Can anyone help me?
Mm-hm, praise God.
Um, how may I pray
for you today?
This rash, can't you stop
the itching?
Ernest, it's time to wrap it up
Let's see...
you have a rash... rash.
Um, where is the rash?
Well, that's quite private.
No, no, no, I just... I just
need more information because..
the more specific that we are
with our prayers...
the more that the good Lord
will be willing...
to take your worry into
consideration.
All right, are you ready
to pray with me?
I hear that, I do.
Hello?
Just put your faith
in the power of the Lord...
and you gonna find
those keys, girl.
The Daily Devotional
is offering a free trial...
but after 30 days, you can
continue with a donation
arrangement.
What was that?
Oh, Sarah,
oh, you are too much.
All righty then, in faith.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up!
Hold up!
Those are valuable goods.
It's your first day.
It's a lot to take in, I know.
Believe me, I have seen a lot
of people crumble under
the pressure to serve.
But you look solid.
Solid?
Yeah.
Coffee break!
This lady called the other day,
and, you know, kept crying
and crying and...
That guy called today, too,
he started crying.
I was just like,
"You gotta keep the faith."
You think there's any way
I could go out and have a...
Good morning, everyone!
Good morning, Bill!
Beautiful, beautiful day.
Isn't it?
Yes!
Oh, Serena Belle, did you bring
your iced lemon cake again?
Mm-hm.
We deserve our breaks.
And how blessed we are to be
sharing the good Lord's work...
with the y, y callers
who are reaching out to us.
Another record week!
Yay! Whoo!
And! And! Repeat callers
for Georgia...
Marlene!
For Serena Belle!
Yes!
That room, this building,
these four walls...
and the y walled cubicles...
this space... this space
is truly a special space.
And the work you do, redeems
you in the eyes of the Lord.
This you must know
and feel in your heart.
You are all truly serving
the master.
We are, amen.
God, not me.
Dear Heavenly Father,
bless this day.
Let us serve you and your
word in all its glory.
Amen.
Amen.
All right, let's get to work,
and by that, I mean,
let's talk turkey.
Pun intended.
We are fast coming upon the
great Thanksgiving holiday...
and you know what that means.
A whole lot of need.
You mean, we're gonna be
more busy than usual?
Oh, honey, you haven't seen
such
need as the holiday, precious.
Indeed, indeed, but now, now
is the time to answer the call.
We will not slow down.
No.
We will not leave a caller
holding on the line.
Mm-mm, no.
We will push through,
we will send out that prayer.
We are special, and the work we
do is special.
And it matters.
Hallelujah.
Each and every one
of you matters.
Yes!
Because we're here.
Yes!
Waiting with open arms.
Yes!
With open ears!
Yes!
And with open hearts,
send it up!
With open hearts,
thank you, God! Thank you.
- Amen.
- Praise God.
Oh, look, our new recruit.
Welcome, Cora... welcome.
And now, I have to ask you
a very serious question.
How's your serve?
Reigning champs, LCSD Indoor
Beach Volleyball League.
Whoo!
Huh? Welcome, playa!
I don't really do sports.
Oh! She doesn't really
do sports.
What do we say to that, team?
If you can answer the call,
you better pop that ball!
Welcome, welcome to the fold.
All right, it is time.
Let's go do some good.
Good work, everybody.
Don't tell my wife, but I'm
taking a piece of this cake.
It's not gonna eat itself.
No, it's not.
Let's do some work, folks.
Let's go. It's a sin to waste.
My name is , and I'll
help you through this, sir.
The power of prayer
is with you .
Willingly afflict... we're
created of children and men...
I see my prayers... look
with pity upon us.
Anything is possible,
Mrs. Lurie.
It is possible with God.
Are you hearing me?
All right, listen
with your whole heart.
Close your eyes,
and let my voice guide you.
Yeah?
You're not getting away
that easy.
I'm sorry.
Tah-dah!
I can't believe I almost...
Well, here,
hope it's not too small.
Wow, it's got my name
on the back and everything.
Oh, yeah.
We're on the
same team now, you know?
Right, um...
well, Bill, I gotta jet.
Godspeed.
Well, that's...
that's wonderful, Margaret.
Yeah, yeah, that's...
Margaret, that is fantastic.
Absolutely.
Oh, we are.
We are good, too.
She is, Cora is good.
Yeah, okay, I will.
Absolutely.
See you on the fifth.
Hello, sweetie.
Margaret calling for the dirt.
Is it after 4:
00?I thought it was
so much earlier.
It's 5:
00.Yeah.
Margaret on the phone?
Oh, yeah, right, well,
she's just, um...
You know, she's... bored.
Wondering how we all are doing.
Please tell me you told her
that we're all doing A-okay.
Yeah, of course.
So?
Fine.
And you stayed the whole day?
Yes.
Did anybody give you
a hard time?
Jesus, Mom!
Okay!
Um, your father called...
and he's really behind
with the McCarron deposition.
So he'd probably
be a few more days in...
But he's really looking
forward to seeing you.
Big, deep breath in...
Dial-a-Prayer, how may
I pray for you today?
There it is. All right, good.
All right,
just listen intently. Go.
I just don't have the energy
to keep looking for a new wife.
Well, anything is possible
with God!
Now personalize, personalize!
...Mr. Madison.
There you go.
And, if you're interested
in signing up...
Good, that's great,
now go for it, now!
...then I'd be happy to sign
you up for the morning
meditation.
It's an odd choice, but that's
fine, just keep going.
The morning meditation may
indeed bring you to a closer
place...
with our Lord God in heaven.
Remember, what is done for him
in secret, shall be rewarded
openly!
Nice!
Marlene, such an improvement
from last week's debacle.
Oh, thank you, , that
means so much coming from you.
Why do I always have to play
the boring white ?
Okay, Cora, are you ready
to give it a shot?
Jeff, I'd like to phone in.
I've done a little dialogue
work.
Sure thing, yeah!
Looks like we got time
for one more. Here we go.
Good, and... there.
Um, Dial-a-Prayer
Louder.
Cora, how may I pray for you...
A little too much.
I'm lost. I can't find the
strength to get along!
And I think I'm gonna do it!
Um...
I will... today.
Okay, um, well, Miss...
Jeremies.
Don't help her.
Miss Jeremies, maybe
I could offer you a prayer
for protection.
Oh...
No, rather a prayer... something
from the New Testament.
I'm falling down
into the pit of hell!
My life has no meaning!
Can't you just...
Hang on, code word "can't",
grab on to can't.
Can't... um, well,
Miss Jeffries, uh...
"can't" is not a word that
