Angel

I did not know Mary Kate. In fact, I’ve only recently read about her. She was in the second grade class of my friend Kim’s daughter, and her story can be found here.

Mary Kate died yesterday. She was called home. Way too soon.

This is for her, her family, and for Kim and her daughter, Lillian.

Lord, whose ways are beyond understanding,
Listen to the prayers of your faithful people:
That those weighed down by grief
At the loss of this little child
May we find reassurance in your infinite goodness.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
