Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Prayer Ping!
Sorry to hear this.
You know what I hearing off Twiter and facebook he was fading fast Salvation it was matter of time
Traditional Feast of St. Francis of Assisi
Requiescat in pace, Fr. Groeschel.
A great man. I’ll miss him.
RIP good and faithful servant. My Favorite story was the one he told about the time he and two other priests were arrested outside an abortion clinic for praying. The older priest was around 90 and the police officers were afraid to put cuffs on him.
RIP Father. I loved his show.
RIP. I got to meet him once. It was a pleasure.
A good man in a bad time. He will be sorely missed, but I suppose it was time for him to go. I suspect that he will soon be looking down with the other saints from Heaven and continuing to do good.
St. Francis actually died on the evening of October 3, 1226, so Fr. Groeschel died on the anniversary.
May God grant you eternal rest Father Groeschel. I enjoyed every one of his books. He truly was blessed with the gift of wisdom.
A true man of God will always frighten some; the negative posts aren’t a shock
Father Groeschel’s book on dealing with the death of a loved one helped me cope with my two brothers passing away within 6 months of each other. I have read a lot of his books and he will be sorely missed.
Very true.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
We have lost a blessing
Father Benedict, forgive us and pray for us.
Lord Jesus Christ, rest Thy servant Benedict with the saints and the angels and work many miracles through him. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, in the company of saints in heaven we pray, amen.
A great man of God. Eternal rest grant to him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
When my cable service provider bumped EWTN into hyperspace, accessible only by the purchase of yet another, add on device, I switched to Direct TV. Rates dropped and EWTN is now available 24/7. Give them a call.
