prayer-manager

A program to manage prayer requests for different users

Purpose

My wife had been wanting my to make her a prayer request program and journal for a couple of years so I thought this would be a job for Laravel and would be a great project for me to show what I've learned. This is the alpha version and only the prayer request program. I will be refactoring and updating as time goes on. This is open source and you may clone it and modify to your heart's content
