Please Pray

by | Jun 12, 2014 | FSSP, Prayer Request | 8 comments

Please pray for the soul of Fr. Kenneth Walker, FSSP (pictures from his First Mass in 2012 here) who was shot and killed during a robbery at the Mater Misericordiae (Mother of Mercy) Mission in Phoenix, AZ.  Please pray for the family of Fr. Walker.  Please pray for Fr. Joseph Terra, who is in critical condition but stable.  Please pray for all the families who attend Mater Misericordiae. Please pray for the safety of all FSSP priests.   (Update: Pray For The Priests of Mater Misericordiae in Phoenix on FSSP website)

Requiem aeternum dona ei Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. 
Requiescat in Pace. Sacerdos in Aeternum. Amen.

    Our parish was robbed here several weeks ago in the night. Thankfully no one was hurt. This is just heartbreaking to hear. Our family will certainly pray for all those affected and I will share this over on my page as well. Thank you for letting us know of this tragedy.

    We knew Fr. Terra 20 years ago when he served at our parish. Breaks my heart. He is a good and holy man as I'm sure Fr. Walker was, as well.

    We've known Fr. Terra for a long time before he became a FSSP priest. He is an awesome priest. He also married us 13 years ago just this week. God bless all of our priests and keep them safe from harm. May their Guardian angels protect them.

Prayer of Mothers

Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.

A Little About Me

Hi! I'm Jessica, a Roman Catholic wife and home educating mother to our nine children. I was home educated myself, along with my eleven younger siblings. I have a special devotion to St. Therese, through whom I have been given much help and many blessings--the beautiful "Shower of Roses" that she has sent my way! Here I will record a few of the blessings I treasure. Please remember that what you see here is just a little glimpse at our lives, so please say a prayer for us, as we continue to strive for holiness.
