Everyday
Kyanna Coffee and her boyfriend, William Morland, meet to pray. They
debate over whether to put Christian music from the radio or to play
a CD in the background, and then they begin. Morland starts a rapid
conversation with his head bowed while Kyanna nods and agrees. "Yes,
God," she says. Their solid stance slowly starts to move like
a pair of statues coming to life. They rock back and forth while exchanging
loud prayers for friends and family. Bible verses are interjected
when they apply to someone's situation. As the prayer reaches a frenzied
point, Morland breaks out in a partially improvised song. His voice
booms in the small dorm room. They end their prayer in a tight embrace.
