Light A Candle And Say Some Prayers
Fr. Mike has asked us to say some prayers for his mother Margaret McDevitt who is not long for this world.
This photo was taken at the adoration chapel at St. Joseph's Catholic Church. I love to go there and spend an hour with our Savior in the blessed sacrement. It's so peaceful and joyful and comforting there. I hope you have one in your church and take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to get closer to God.

O God who has defeated death and granted the gift of life to the world, give to your departed sons and daughters repose and security in which pain and grief are forgotten. As you are a good and loving God, pardon every one of their sins of thought, word, and deed.
O Savior who has purchased mortals with your own blood and redeemed them by your death, grant to us by your Resurrection life everlasting. Give rest, Lord, to all the faithful departed, whether in desert lands or in cities, on the sea or on the shore; to those of every age and race. Make them all worthy of you heavenly kingdom. Amen.
