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.

I learned today that someone we knew at a previous duty station shot his estranged wife and then took his own life yesterday. (She is recovering, as far as I know.) I am very sad...I can't help but think that this was the ultimate cry for help...and I so wish that we could teach our children to articulate feelings and feel good about asking for help when life gets overwhelming.

Please pray for everyone involved...particularly the young son of this couple.
