Prayers for Gatesville

Yesterday, June 26, there was an explosion at Coryell Memorial Hospital in Gatesville (which is in the Diocese of Austin) which killed one person and injured at least a dozen others.  We are saddened by this loss of life and injury to those involved.  We pray for the deceased and injured.  Many thanks to the first responders and all who assisted in providing care.  We seek Our Lady of Lourdes’ intercession for the entire community as they recover from this tragedy.  (CNS photo/Gregory A.
