[hear our prayers]

we pray for the father vigilio. may the lord hear our prayers we as the surrounding communities need to pray with the most intention for our father vigilio.

[Very Blessed]

We are very blessed to have known Fr. Flores. He was a humble and loved Father. When my mom died he gave such a beautiful service for her and she loved him so much. He was a Father that was very blessed by Our Lord...my prayers are with you always! Our community was blessed to have had him here in Deming!

Prayers from our family to Fr. Flores

Saint Faustina said "Divine Mercy Hour" is from 3PM to 4, local time. That is the hour Jesus died and HE especially HEARS your prayers.....Check out www.SpiritDaily.com for more information.

A Divine Mercy believer was on the flight that landed in the Hudson River.... around 3:05PM when the engines quit.... he asked Jesus' Divine Mercy to protect the plane as they were going down.

Fr. Flores will be in our Divine Mercy Chaplet beginning today and I ask that all "Christian Prayer Groups" PRAY for Father Flores speedy recovery, too!

And where was God!

How dare you say that deerme...He was a man of God and God was with him. As we who believe in God, he is always with us..

I have been blessed to have known Father Flores not only 1 or 2 times but 3 times. He was a man with a huge heart always made you feel welcomed and had alot of charisma. He will be greatly missed in not only St. Joseph's Catholic Church but all those that were just as blessed as we were to have had his presense in his career as a Preist.

Obviously DEERME you sound like somoebody who has no HEART much less know God... God chooses the path you live and chooses your time of death. You need to read the bible or start going to church.

Sorry to break it to you all, but he died late wednesday night in tucson.

[Su gente de Columbus]

Fue un placer en conocerlo, una persona muy buena y umilde. Gracias por todo. Resaremos por usted y su familia.

There are many sincere people in Christendom, the Bible gives everyone the hope that they will be resurrected back to life, when this earth is restored to a paradise. Jesus died so everyone will have that hope, today anyone who refuses to accept Almighty God Jehovah's only one way to salvation will not be there, they will be destroyed when the Great Tribulation affects this earth. Only those who die before the Great Tribulation starts will be resurrected from the dead in the new world. These resurrected ones will be judged by how they live their lives after they are resurrected. In this new world, there will be no wars, crime, sickness, hatred and fighting, no tears and no death as long as you are obedient to God's direction from his word.

So sorry Alejandra for the loss of your uncle. Also, sorry for the people that new and loved him.

AS FOR YOU DEERME.........WHY MAKE REMARKS LIKE THAT ? GIVE THESE SADDENED PEOPLE A MOMENT TO EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS AND MOURN HIS LOSS. LOOKING AT ALL THESE COMMENTS SO FAR, YOURS IS THE ONLY NEGATIVE ONE......REALLY NOT NEEDED OR WANTED AT ALL. SOUNDS LIKE YOU REALLY DON'T HAVE A HEART.

[Oliver]

He was truly a very sincere and loving person. He was loved by all who knew him. May he rest in peace. Our prayers and condolences to all the family.

new=knew
Dumming, I do have a heart and also know how to spell. I merely questioned why God did not watch over this Priest, as he apparently was one of the good and faithful ones. Rather than reply to my concern you seem to say I had contributed to the accident. May he rest in peace.

My family met Padre Flores when we first moved to El Paso in late 1970s. He is a dear family friend. He married me and baptised my first born, who today turns 13. We tried to visit Padre Flores wherever he transferred to around New Mexico. My mom says she couldn't stop thinking of him this past week. Today we recived the news from San Antonio Church.

I was very fortunate to have know Father Flores,
he was the Godfather of all my children. He was
always joking and laughing. he would tell stories about his childhood in Costa Rica . He was a close friend of my wife Martha and all her family in El Paso Texas. He was looking foward to retiring and possibly moving back to Costa Rica. He helped many people though tough times, he will be greatly missed. we cannot questioned God as to why these things happen, all we can do is draw our own conclusion, may he rest in peace .
