Bidding farewell to a friend
With both sadness and great faith, we acknowledge the passing of our friend, colleague, author, and youth ministry pioneer, Lisa-Marie Calderone-Stewart who returned home to God on Friday, December 9, 2011. Her contributions to youth ministry are only eclipsed by the loving and faithful way she shared her journey toward death--even as she found new friends throughout the period in which she was (in her own words) "dying to know you better." As she led through her faithful work with young people, she now leads us to the heavenly kingdom where we look forward to meeting again.
Eternal rest, grant unto her, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon her.
May her soul, and all the souls of the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God,
rest in peace. Amen.
