Nightly prayers encourage neighbors to connect at a distance during isolation

Amy Passaretti / The Outlook Chris, Ty and Kylie Brown pray at the end of their driveway every night at 8 p.m. and have encouraged others in the Young Acres neighborhood to do the same.

At around 8 p.m. each evening, neighbors within the Young Acres subdivision in Alexander City are reminded they are not alone despite isolating at home and having to maintain a 6-foot distance between non-family members. 

Residents are walking out to the end of their driveways to collectively pray for the city, state and country. They use flashlights to communicate with others outside doing the same.
