WHEN WE PRAY FOR THE DEAD......

we should remember the countless Africans, known only to God, who were thrown overboard on their terrible voyage to the Americas and slavery, in order to lighten cargo during storms.

Imagine their lonely terror and despair, drowning with God only knows what gods to pray to.

Praying for the dead is a very important thing to do.

Teresa - and good to do it in Protestant cemeteries, given that generally Protestants don't pray for their dead.
