Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Her unborn baby just died. She was due to have the baby next week. She was having contractions last night, but this morning she could not feel the baby. She went to a check-up and there was no heartbeat. She has a 17 year old daughter and a 13 year old son. They have been praying for a baby for so long and she finally conceived last year after many miscarriages. They adopted 2 little ones 2 years ago. Please pray for them.

I know how much this hurts. I am praying with so much empathy for her and her family during this excruciatingly painful time.

This is so sad ... I had a friend who lost her unborn baby just before birth (it was her second child). The pain that we all felt was so immense. I will pray for your friend, her family, and her unborn baby.

I'm praying, Ruth!

I really believe people are being asked to carry extra heavy crosses right now...

God bless them....
