MAY PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM (Traditional prayer)
Y BRILLE PARA ELLOS LA LUZ PERPETUA (Oracion tradicional)
Fourth4Souls is a movement of the heart born out of love, in honor of the memory of my sweet dear mom Carmen Luisa who went home with Jesus December 4 2023, that gathers people on the 4th day of each month either in person, virtually or spiritually to pray for the eternal joy of the souls of our beloved departed, including all the souls in purgatory with shared remembrance in a spirit of gratitude, hope and mutual support while also praying for consolation for all grieving hearts and the intentions of participants. In our remembrance we recall, share and celebrate the virtues in our loved ones we admired most as we pray for to grow in that and other virtues that emulate their good example and in it receive the consoling grace of feeling their nearness in our hearts each time we spread hope and choose love through the practice of these virtues as living prayers, living memorials for them while extending their positive legacy. Occasionally, the 4th day sometimes also doubles as "day 1" of "Novenarios", nine days of prayer for our beloved departed, in keeping with that beautiful tradition observed by Hispanic Filipino and other cultures).

Para Las Almas (Fourth4Souls) es un pequeño movimiento nacido del amor, en honor a la memoria de mi dulce mamita Carmen Luisa llamada por Papa Dios un 4 de Diciembre, que reúne corazones el 4to dia de cada mes ya sea presencialmente, virtualmente o espiritualmente, para orar unidos por el gozo eterno de las almas de nuestros seres queridos que han partido a la casa del Padre, incluyendo a las almas del purgatorio, con recordación compartida en un espíritu de gratitud, esperanza y apoyo mutuo a la vez que se ora por el consuelo de todos los corazones afligidos y las intenciones de participantes y amigos. En esa recordación compartimos y celebramos las virtudes que mas admirábamos en nuestros seres queridos y pedimos la gracia para emularlos mientras crecemos en virtud y por la gracia consoladora para sentir su cercanía en cada acto de amor y esperanza como oraciones y memoriales vivientes para el eterno gozo de sus almas y la extension de su legado. A veces el 4 también se convierte en "día 1" de un "Novenario", nueve días de oración por nuestros difuntos tradicional para hispanos, filipinos y otras culturas.

LIFTING UP HEARTS
We were lifted up!
Marta's music and the loving care that comes across in every note lifted up and brought peace to my family during our difficult time of loss and grief. (Virginia V)
MADE OUR DAY SPECIAL
Every time we hear Marta sing, we feel tenderly enveloped by each note, making every event at which we've heard her sing, including a family funeral, extra special to the point there was nobody else we could think of to book to sing on our wedding day. (Tracy and John W.)
TURNED TEARS INTO HOPE
I booked Marta to sing at my mom's wake at the funeral home, then thought to ask her if she could address my family as well and, WOW. What followed was so beyond my highest expectations. The conversation she facilitated turned tears into hope in no time flat and had us ALL singing at the end. Thank you Marta! (BeeBee I.)
DIDN'T NEED MUSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT
We booked Marta to sing at a special private Mass and asked her if she would mind doing the Mass A Capella. She didn't hesitate and jumped right in with both feet, and we were so glad to have asked as the beauty and emotion in her voice needed no other music accompaniment to touch the hearts of everyone who attended.
