news story of murdered Sister Karen
http://www.wben.com/news/fullstory.php?newsid=04806

Above is a link of a local story. A Roman Catholic nun was murdered on Friday. She had been missing, and her body was found today. We are all sad to have lost a wonderful woman of God who worked tirelessly to serve the Lord by serving others in such a beautiful way. She was a wonderful example of loving your neighbor as yourself. Please pray for the repose of the soul of Sister Karen.

She has a sister who is also a nun who lives not too far away. Please pray for her sister, Sister Jean. I’m sure she is grieving the loss of her dear sister tonight. May she be comforted by the loving arms of our Lord.

Please also pray for the man, Craig Lynch who murdered this wonderful sister. Please pray that He will come to know the Lord through this, to seek His mercy, and to turn his heart and life to Jesus. I’m sure that would be what Sister Karen would want most of all.

Thank you so much friends. Our prayers are powerful, and are a gift to others. I appreciate your prayers in this situation. :o(
With Love,
Tracy
