Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Prayers for her soul.

But, this grandmother I remember praying the Rosary. (The other one probably did as well but I was much younger when she died.)


I had two grandparents who were very faithful to the rosary. I take great comfort in Our Lady's promises to take those who are faithful to the Rosary to heaven quickly. I often ask my grandfather, in particular, to intercede for me if he's there!

Even though I expected this, I guess one is always a granddaughter, no matter how old one becomes.


Praying for you, too. It's so hard to lose a grandparent; it's been 10 years since my last grandparent died and I still miss them greatly from time to time.

Helen,

I'm praying for the repose of her soul, and for comfort for you and your family. I had a very special grandma too, and I think of and miss her often.

Helen, you and your family have been in my prayers. And I've been praying for the repose of the soul of your grandmother. My grandmother died earlier this year too. It is hard even when we know that they will be called home soon.

Thanks everyone!

On Friday, I had St. Anne on my mind throughout the day. On Saturday, we drove to a new nature sanctuary for a walk. On the way, we passed a church dedicated to St. Anne!

I've begun a novena.

God bless you, Helen. I'm praying for the repose of your grandmother and for comfort for those who love and will miss her, through the intercession of St. Anne.

Love,
