Willa, offering a Chaplet of Divine Mercy for your mom right now. May you experience the peace and consolation and presence of Christ throughout this day and the coming days as you walk this path with your mom.

Friends,
Willa writes to ask for prayers especially now.

I think we are getting to Mom's last hours. Would you mind updating 4Real so they can pray for a safe final passage into God's eternal light?

Willa's mom died peacefully this morning (March 11), about an hour after Willa's second brother arrived. They were all by their mom's side, and I know this was a great comfort to all of the family, as well as to Willa's mom.

Please continue to keep Willa and her family in your prayers as well as praying for the repose of the soul of Willa's mom.

Praying. How beautiful that she was brought home on the day of our Lord's Resurrection! Praying for the family as they grieve their loss, and praying for the repose of the soul of Willa's mother.

Willa, praying for your dear mother and your entire family as you bear this loss. Mar. 11 is the anniversary of my own dear mother's death ~ I will make a special effort to link your mother's soul with mine in a perpetual chain of prayer.


These prayers have brought great consolation to our family:
Chaplet of St. Gertrude and
Pious Prayers for the Poor Souls

Mourning Prayer

Lord, God you are attentive to the voice of our pleading. Let us find in your Son comfort in our sadness, certainty in our doubt, and courage to live through this hour. Amen.

Lord, N. is gone now from this earthly dwelling, and has left behind those who mourn his/her absence. Grant that we may hold his/her memory dear, never bitter for what we have lost nor in regret for the past, but always in hope of the eternal kingdom where you will bring us together again. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

I'm so sorry, Willa. Praying for you and your family and will be offering my Mass and Communion for her tomorrow.
Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and may your perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace.

Willa,

I know this is late, but I am so sorry about your mother's death. We have been praying for her and you, but I didn't get around to telling you so!

In Christ,
Deborah
