Please pray!

A reader named Troy writes:

You may not remember me, but I was on the Catholic Answers cruise with you and your wife in 2008. I am writing today with a heavy heart. My youngest son Michel (18 months) was tragically killed in an accident on June 2. Can you please request prayers for my wife Eunice, his brothers and sisters: Mason, Gabriel, Sarah and Raphael.

Thanks.

Yours in Christ.

I am *so* sorry to hear this, Troy. May God grant eternal rest snd everlasting joy to Michel and may he, by the power of the Holy Spririt, sustain and console you and Eunice, Mason, Gabriel, Sarah, and Raphael through this terrible tragedy through his Son Jesus, who is the Resurrection and the Life. May Mary take Michel into her arms and be his mother while he is away from you, and may you all meet again one day in the Blessed Trinity to enjoy the New Heaven and the New Earth he promises us and will surely give to his child, Michel.

God be with you, Troy.
