Well, some of you may remember that Osaka and I went on a missions trip to the Dominican Republic this past July. While we were there, I met this beautiful little girl named Francessa, who quickly grabbed my heart and was almost immediately my favorite of all the kids. This is a picture of her:

Well, today she died of a heart attack. She was only four, so all I can imagine was that it was some kind of a heart defect that she's probably had from birth. But it breaks my heart, she was so little and she had a brother and two sisters who always watched out for her and loved her and must be devestated. Please pray for the family, epecially the siblings. Thanks.

Death of a little girl
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.
High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.
High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

sad! 
they must be going through a lot of grief right now. I will pray that God helps them through with the loss of a loved one so young.

That's so heartbreaking, I will definitely be praying for her family, I imagine they must be in shock right now. I pray that God will grant them strength, peace and comfort during this time.

As the Requiem mass has it, and I pray alongside,
Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.
You are praised, God, in Zion,
and homage will be paid to You in Jerusalem.
Hear my prayer,
to You all flesh will come.
Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.

That's terrible news. I'll be praying for you and for her loved ones. Praise God that He doesn't make such little ones accountable, and that she's resting in His arms now.

That's awful! I'm so sorry. That would tear my heart in half. I'll be praying
