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.

Ben is dying. He is a wonderful older man we met when living in WV; his wife Mary died in a car accident 1 1/2 years ago. Ben has struggled with cancer for years, and now it's time for him to go home to God. Please pray for him and for his children, grandchildren and friends, who love him so much.

Ben is a devout Catholic, and I know his pastor is visiting him daily.

Thanks for your prayers.
