Let's Pray for the Former President Cory Aquino

There were text messages that the former President Aquino had passed away. But the Aquino family clarified the issue that it was not true. Her grandson, Justin 'Jiggy' Aquino Cruz, said the rumors of Former President Cory Aquino's death were "false, I can assure you that." Dr. Eric Nubla, spokesman for Makati Medical Center said that "The Aquino family appreciates expressions of support from the public, but would like to request that only announcements from the 5 children and grandsons be given credence by the public and the press."

In my opinion, as the Filipino citizen, instead of spreading any unnecessary information why don't we pray to the former president. We all know that she is in pain right now so all we must do is to pray. Lets pray that the pain she in right now will lessen.

Pope Benedict XVI is also praying for Cory Aquino. The Apostolic Nunciature in the Philippines issued a communiqué that the Pope also expressed his spiritual closeness to Aquino. The Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone had updated the Pope regrading on Aquino's health condition.

“The Holy Father has asked that you be informed that he is remembering you in his prayers,” Papal Nuncio to the Philippines Archbishop Edward Joseph Adams told Aquino.
