Our Lord, You told St. Gertrude the GREAT that the following prayer would release 1000 souls from Purgatory each time it is said. The prayer was extended to include living sinners as well:
"Eternal Father, I offer You
the most precious blood of Your
Divine Son, Jesus, in union
with the Masses said throughout
the world today, for all the
Holy Souls in Purgatory,
for sinners everywhere, for
sinners in the universal church,
those in my own home and
within my family. Amen."

Safely Home
March 31, 2010
I am home in Heaven, dear ones; Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last. Did you wonder I so calmly Trod the valley of the shade? Oh! but Jesus' love illumined Every dark and fearful glade. And He came Himself to meet me In that way so hard to tread; And with Jesus' arm to lean on, Could I have one doubt or dread? Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still: Try to look beyond earth's shadows, Pray to trust our Father's Will. There is work still waiting for you, So you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remaineth- You shall rest in Jesus' land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come!

You're still here in my heart and mind, still making me laugh cause your stories live on. I hold you in a thought and I can feel you. I feel you and this gives me strength and courage. The tears I have cried for you could flood the earth and I know you have wiped each one away. For you BROTHER, I promise you this; I will go on with my life and make you proud.
I will always hold you in my heart. I promise you I will be missing you everyday till the end of time, but this is not my end and I can't hold my head underwater....
I need to breathe. I need to love and miss you,
But I also need to live because through me you will live, you will still laugh and love, you will still sing and dance, you will still hug and kiss. You will forever be in our lives; you will forever be a BROTHER, a son, an uncle and friend. I am going to miss your shining face I think of you and wonder why? I might cry or smile, but at the end of the day I am one day closer to you....
And one day we will be together again.
I LOVE YOU!!!!

Prayer to El Santo Nino De Atocha
O Miraculous Infant of Atocha!
Cast Thy merciful look upon my troubled heart, so inclined to pity. Be softened by my prayer, and grant me these favors which I ardently implore of Thee.
Take from me all affliction and despair, all trials and misfortunes with which I am laden. For Thy Sacred Infancy’s sake, send me now the consolation and aid and grace that I may praise Thee with the Father and Holy Ghost, forever and ever. Amen
O Divine Child of Atocha, hear my prayer and grant my petition.

"God Saw You"
March 27, 2010
God saw you tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered "come to me" with tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pas away and though we love you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands were put to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us...He only takes the best. "
We ask that you continue to pray for the repose of his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

The greatest expression of love is forgiveness. We believe that God's infinite love was expressed through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Through His love, we have been forgiven, and this great act
of God's love we know as mercy.

Today was a very important day for us. We took our first step for our justice. You should very proud of your Becky and your sister. We were there for you Mi Hijo.
It was very,very hard for me to go. Becky is our rock. She is the one who gives us courage. Your dreams were cut short. That is what hurts me the most.

Primo, the loss you have beared on us has been too much for us who knew you best. I stand here coming down to Zapata over and over hoping that one day, I will truly smile without grief, with comfort and with the family that loves you and misses you very much. For reasons that are too undescribable, I find peace and love in being with your Mother, sisters, and daughters. I miss you so much and God grant the forgiveness for not seeing you as much as I could have during the last days before you went to the Lord. I will hold our special memories together; at times I cry and at others, I laugh and only you and I know what we're talking about. Look over us as we continue this journey in life; I know that you are with us as you bring us closer together with the love the Lord has given us as we seek each other's comfort through grief and loss. Te extano mucho. Tu primo hermano por vida, Arturo, Jr.

MY LORD
February 19, 2010
Lord, I cannot imagine any grief more consuming than this. O God, my child. I am weary and numb. It is hard for me to realize that this loss is real and that it is permanent. I feel guilty that, as a mother, it is so hard to release my child to You, the Father. But Lord, it is almost more than I can bear.
Lord, bring comort. Send Your Holy Spirit in a way I've never experienced before. I need You right beside me. I need t cry on Your shoulder. I need to know that You know. You really know.
Lord, give wisdom to those around me who want to help, but feel so inadaquate. Equip them to minister to me in ways that will help all of us. But more than that, be my deepest friend. Bring me through these devastating days. Give me grace through all my grief. Help me now to survive, and when it's time, to arise stronger and more compassionate. Remind me that my child is safe with You. And so am I.

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury,pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

WHY ?????

Sunday was your birthday. We all remembered. We had a wonderful day. But I came home wondering, crying, asking why? I don't understand. All I know is that I Love You very much. I want you back. I want everything to back to the way we were. I don't know what to do....I don't know how to go on. I miss you so much.

Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have you heart walking around outside your body.
The dead cannot cry out for justice;

A BEREAVED MOTHER
January 15, 2010
Mary, what can I say now that my son is gone? Mother of Sorrows, to you I turn for help and comfort. I have lost my only son, just as you lost your son Jesus when you stood beneath the cross and saw him die for our sins. You suffered so much, Mary, and you must know what I am suffering. I do not understand why God has allowed this sorrow to come into my life; yet I know that he is my loving father and that he is all good. I must be patient and trustful. Heavenly Mother, pray that I may have strength. What are those words, so gentle and consoling, I seem to hear you say? Yes, my child is happy in heaven, or will soon be in heaven. Some day we are going to meet again where there will be no more saddness, no more parting. Until then I will look to you holding your devine Son in your arms and I Know you will help me to understand and bear my sorrow.
