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.

Friends, please pray for friends of ours, a beautiful homeschooling family in Memphis. On Wednesday, the husband and father went out bike-riding and was struck by a pickup truck and killed. He leaves his wife and five children, two college-aged (I think they're both at Christendom; I know the oldest daughter is), a high-schooler who's one of my older daughter's best friends, and two younger children. Obviously they are devastated, and the days ahead will be hard.

I've been lurking lately more than posting, but I check in regularly and pray for your intentions. Thank you so much for remembering this family in your prayers.

Sally

Oh no, what terrible news. I'll be praying for this husband's soul and his poor, devastated family.

This is so tragic and sad, Sally! I'm praying for the repose of his soul and for his family and friend's comfort.
