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.

Many of you know that my oldest son is a midshipman at the US Naval Academy. His plebe year is over and he did so well. I am so proud of him. Thank you for all your prayers! Now I am asking prayers again. He just received his summer assignment - the USS Rushmore, San Diego, CA. Yikes! So far away! Help me to trust. I know God is looking out for him, but I am so overwhelmed with all of this. I know he is a big boy now - a man. Somehow though, he got to this point while I stayed behind as his little old mom still remembering my little boy. Thanks so much!

Praying! If it's any consolation, it's such a beautiful place to be stationed.

Praying...and asking God to give you peace of mind, as well. Your son has accomplished a lot this year!

Praying Maria!

My almost 17 yr old met with a Marine recruiter last week. He has one more year at home, and then he'll be off, too.
