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.

My brother is leaving tomorrow for Iraq. We all feel very helpless. It has been understandably hard on my mother. She had a verry difficult night last night and I would appreciate any prayers. I don't know what to do.

Oh, Jennifer. I will pray for you, your brother, your mother, your whole family. That's all I can do for you, I have no advice. Just prayers.

God bless. Ruth

Prayers for all of you. My very dear friend just had her dh deployed again! It is his third time. He is Army Special Forces and they have 8 dc. It is soo hard.

Of course....I'll pray for you all, especially hard for dear Mama.

Jennifer, we will be praying for your folks (and you) - for some ease of mind and comfort of heart. We will also pray, daily, for your brother's safety.

I can only imagine how hard this is, as I have one dear brother I love so much. Offering up some sister prayers for him.

Jennifer,

I remembered your intention at Mass today and prayed especially for your brother.

We, too, will keep him in our daily prayers. And for your family as well during this separation.
