Our thoughts and prayers are with John and your family every single day. Thankful for you all, your faithfulness and the peace of Christ. Sending love and constant prayers.

We are absolutely heartbroken to hear this news. We will continue daily rosaries for miraculous healing and Jesus’ will to be done as well as grace, love and peace to be poured out in abundance on all the Ahern family. Thank you for allowing us to walk on this journey with you. Witnessing your sacred suffering has been a beautiful gift that you have given to the entire STM community. We will never forget your perfect example of strength in your weakness and are so grateful for it.

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”

Our hearts are very saddened by this news. Our love and prayers go out to John and his family.

John, Jan, and family- Praying that you will feel the Lord's love and peace during this difficult time. "The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged." Deuteronomy 31: 8-9. Love, The Peralo family

Jesus declared, "Those who believe in me will have life even if they die" (John 11:25). Jesus' followers can celebrate even in the midst of grief and mourning over the loss of friends and loved ones. Jesus has promised eternal life to believers, free from all tears, sorrow, and pain [Rev. 21:4). That is why, when it comes to death, Christians are a people of hope.

Tears prayers love caring angry and more tears. I have so enjoyed every single moment with you, laughing with Trina, listening to the best music I have ever heard in an office, just plain chatting... You are, and will always , remain so special to me 💜
