Mary Virginia Parrish sets aside her planned subject at the 1982 New York Long Island CFO to press a single point: forgiveness is the condition of inner healing and of prayer that gets anywhere at all. She recalls telling a woman in counseling who admitted she hated her husband that healing would wait until forgiveness came first.
It took her four years to work up the courage to attend her first camp, Mary Virginia Parrish tells the 1982 New York Long Island CFO, and she describes the long habit of saying yes to the Lord that followed. A barefoot young man once answered her question about his name with “does it matter.” Two years of postcards went unanswered before his reply came.
