I just found out that my wife\u2019s cousin\u2019s little baby boy drowned by falling in the pool. Probably about a year old or so.<\/p>\n
10 years ago her cousin in the same family committed suicide. The Mother who was raised Catholic has stopped the practice of the faith and the children have not been baptized. When her cousin committed suicide years ago my wife\u2019s grandmother converted to the Catholic faith. My prayer is that out of this tragedy God will bring some great grace out of it and some will be drawn close to his sacred heart and divine mercy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, hear our prayer for the repose of this child\u2019s soul and for this family that has endured such heartbreak. Grant that your Name will be glorified in this and that everyone involved will find the happiness you intend for them through Christ Jesus. Mother Mary, pray for all involved in this tragedy.<\/p>\n
