Death of a carmelite nun: craving for her bridegroom

Sister Cecilia, a Carmelite of Santa Fe in Argentina, who suffered from lung cancer, died this June. Her monastery published the following lines (translated from Spanish):

Dear brothers, sisters and friends:

Jesus! Just a few lines to let you know that our very dear little sister has softly fallen asleep in the Lord, after an extremely painful illness, which she always endured with joy and surrender to her Divine Spouse. We send you all of our affection, thankful for your support and prayer during this time that is so sorrowful and yet also so marvelous. We believe that she flew directly to heaven, but all the same, we ask that you do not fail to pray for her. From heaven, she will reward you.

A warm embrace from your sisters of Santa Fe
