Prayer forum update SMS style?
Is there anyway to get prayer forum requests sent to my cell phone?

I don't have a smart phone, but what a wonderful idea!

Here's a way that would work:

1. Find your phone's "Email Address." This will allow you to get text/sms messages via an email address. The address will vary based on your cellular provider. You can do that here: http://sms411.net/how-to-send-email-to-a-phone.

2. Subscribe to the Prayer Request Forum's RSS Feed via email. Go here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/DABWindfarmPrayerRequests and then click the "Get DAB Windfarm Prayer Requests delivered by email" link on the right. Enter the email address for your phone, and you'll start getting text messages every time a new prayer request is added.

Normal TXT rates would apply, of course, and because of the amount of prayer requests and their length (each prayer request may generate more than one text), you may want to make sure you've got plenty of allowance in your plan.

Hope that helps!
