murdered nun in NM

[Bailey2]

Please pray for the repose of the soul of Sr. Marguerite Bartz of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament who was murdered on the church property of St. Bernard Mission Church. She served the Navajo community in the Diocese of Gallup. Here are some statements from secular news, front page.

“wonderful and caring person… was the type of person that you could talk to without feeling fear or embarrassment…kind lady who wanted to help the [Navajo] comunity in any way that she could…wanted to have a better community where we could have a safer place to live…”

“She was known to be a woman always passionate for justice and peace and the life she lived would tell us that she would respond to this incident with a spirit of forgiveness toward whoever is responsible for these acts,” the diocese said in a written statement.

OUR FATHER, Who art in Heaven,
hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom
come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in
Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive
those who trespass against us. And lead us
not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

HAIL MARY, full of grace, the Lord is
with thee. Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us
sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

GLORY BE to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the
beginning is now, and ever shall be, world
without end. Amen.
