[Magdalen] Prayer Request: Carol

[Jay Weigel]

O Lord, the only Creator, who in the depth of Your wisdom provide all
things out of love for mankind and grant unto all what is profitable: give
rest unto the soul of Carol, for you, O God, made them and fashioned them.
Amen.
(from my Orthodox prayer book)
