This morning, an area woman put on her trademark scarf and clogs, preparing for a full day of making local students feel socially anxious through prayer.
“She walked up to us and asked if she could ‘pray’ for us,” said Mac Davidson ‘24, still reeling from the awkwardness of the encounter. “We agreed because we didn’t know what else to do. There was nowhere to run. She kept praying for those with ‘tarnished souls’ and ‘hopeless futures’? Then she said she was praying especially for those wearing green sweaters. I’m wearing a green sweater. I don’t know, it just felt a little targeted.”
“She kept asking us if she could keep going,” Davidson continued. “I was eating, too. I wasn’t really sure if it was okay for me to do that during the prayer, so I just sort of bowed my head. Is that what people are supposed to do during prayer? She was so kind though, I just wish she could’ve prayed for me to do well on my finals."
At press time, the rapture is still yet to come.
