Epilogue
View through CrossRef
In November 2015, Rosalind’s only son, Fredy [sic], dies in a car accident on his eighteenth birthday, plunging her and the prayer house community into grief. Our Lady Jecintho Prayer House members—mostly children—see visions of Fredy. The family hosts several death memorials, and a year later holds a three-day annual death anniversary. The community announces a “New Resurrection Era,” and the new name of the Lord: Fredy. They witness that Fredy’s death marks this new era and that, like the death of Jesus, God has changed a “bad death” into a “good death.” Rosalind now claims that she conceived Fredy through taking the Eucharist, and Jecintho’s rituals now honor the Lord’s new name. The reader is left to decide how to interpret these events, while endnotes referencing Hindu mourning rituals suggest various possibilities.
