Bless My Homeland Forever

Somehow, I missed this...

The last living member of the Von Trapp family singers, Maria Franziska von Trapp, (Louisa in the movie), passed on to her eternal reward in February at the age of 99.



Aside from her well-known story, equally amazing is the life she went on lead (click HERE for EWTN's story, HERE for CBS News' story).  What a delight she seems to have been!  God willing, we'll all get to know her.

Also, Lisette had a dear friend pass away today.

Maybe you could say a prayer for God to have mercy on their souls & bring them into the light of His countenance.

Perhaps during Lent, we will sing the Office of the Dead to pray for the souls of all those who have passed on, with special intentions for our loved ones.

Become a saint!
