I just got the news from one of her parishioners that my friend Amy passed away.

Into your hands, O merciful Savior, we commend your servant, Amy. Acknowledge, we humbly beseech you, a sheep of your own fold, a lamb of your own flock, a sinner of your own redeeming. Receive her into the arms of your mercy, into the blessed rest of everlasting peace, and into the glorious company of the saints in light. Amen.

Pray for her family, especially her daughter who is now without a mother and just starting her teenage years.
