“Most Holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, united in perfect love, as You look upon us with mercy and caring, we consecrate our hearts, our lives, our family to You. We hope to have, with your help, the unity and strong, enduring love You gave to one another. May our prayers be filled with the needs of others, not just ourselves and may we always be close to your sacraments. Bless those who are present, as well as those who are absent, both the living and the dead; may peace be among us and when we are tested, grant us the Christian acceptance of God’s will. Keep our family close to Your Hearts, may your special protection be with us always. Most Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, hear our prayers.”
I am sorry to hear about the loss of Eddie. I stopped by Paul’s house on the day before Christmas Eve hoping both Viola and Eddie would be there, but no one answered. My thoughts are with you. You all will always be close to my heart.
