The Cost of War

A number of our fellow bloggers who are Daughters of Saint Paul recently posted the sad news of the death of Sgt. Myla Maravillosa who was serving in Iraq as part of her tour of duty as an Army reservist.

Today www.catholic.org is headlining the story of her death and the memorial service held in her honor at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace in Honolulu.

As you may recall, Myla was actively discerning a religious vocation with the Daughters of Saint Paul. Be sure to visit the Catholic News Service article that www.catholic.org carried including firsthand testimony to the beauty of Myla's life and soul.

May she rest in peace in the gentle embrace of her Beloved Jesus! And may her family, friends, and Sisters find comfort in the heart of God.

The war continues. Let Myla's death not be in vain! Credo Pax Christi!
