ReplyDeleteI am so shocked and disappointed when the only time I decided to look up for Fr.Rufus on the internet, to ask for a very very special prayer for my husband, I found that he's no more here on earth. Fr.Rufus you'll be sadly missed and now that you're standing next to God and you have more power than ever to intercede for us, please pray for my husband to find inner peace and happiness and to come back home here to his family permanently.
