Urgent prayer request from Mark Shea's reader

Our eldest child, 13 years old, was found dead yesterday morning in his bed.  Doctors have not yet determined the cause of death.  My wife and I, and his 4 younger siblings, are still in shock and in so much pain  Right before we went to bed, he and I prayed the joyful mysteries.    We’re certain he’s in heaven.  Please pray for his mother and siblings.

Kelly Thatcher is your basic nobody. She serves on no parish councils, belongs to none of the myriad of designer-chic "Catholic" groups, or any Catholic group, for that matter, other than the Roman Catholic Church. Holding no theology degrees, she has no desire to see herself or any of her sex wearing a clerical collar. She figures Jesus knew what He was doing when He established His Church, and also figures that it’s His Church, not hers, and not yours. Email Kelly
