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.

Hi all,

First let me thank all those who said such kind things regarding my son's email to us. I was so touch by your kind words.

We are still adjusting to our dd being gone. It has really been tough. Her little sisters are so lost without her. I spent the first 3 days in tears. We have not heard from her, there is no contact for their first 30 days. Then we may write letters, some of us have already started our letters

My bragging moment is regarding Matthew my son who sent the email. Well he just called and he won the Iron Chef competition at school. His prize was $1000.00 scholarship. Yippeee! (cost of school is $45,000. so every little bit helps) He will compete against some of his instructors on Friday. So if anyone has any extra prayers.....

Thanks for sharing this moment!
