Cristo dirá: «Venid, benditos de mi Padre, heredad el Reino que os ha sido preparado desde la creación del mundo» (Mt 25,34)

Oremos juntos:

Dios de misericordia y de amor,
ponemos en tus manos amorosas a nuestra amada NATALIE.
En esta vida Tú le demostraste tu gran amor;y ahora que ya está libre de toda preocupación, concédeles la felicidad y la paz eterna.
Su vida terrena ha terminado ya;
recíbela ahora en el paraíso,
en donde ya no habrá dolores, ni lágrimas ni penas,
sino únicamente paz y alegría con Jesús, tu Hijo,
y con el Espíritu Santo para Siempre.
Gracias te damos Señor porque el tiempo que estuvo con nosotros,pudimos compartir con ella muchos momentos felices.Amén
Te queremos por siempre mi querida Natalie.

"Yo soy la resurrección y la vida; el que crea en mí, aunque muera vivirá. Y todo el que todavia esté vivo y cree en mí, no morirá eternamente." (Juan 11:25)
