In San Antonio, where a basketball team has long served as a kind of civic religion, four sisters from a covenant community have extended their spiritual practice to include prayers for the Spurs' NBA Finals run.

It is a reminder that community, in its deepest sense, finds expression in unexpected places, and that faith, whatever its form, is ultimately about caring for something beyond oneself.
