A Prayer for our Beloved Dead

Jesus, dear Saviour,
we prayerfully remember all our loved ones who have died.
Please give them comfort and hope and may they be at peace,
knowing that they will rest in God’s arms eternally.
Thank you for our memories of them and for the good times we shared.
We ask you, please, through their intercession,
to deepen our faith, strengthen our hope,
and increase our love that we,
too may someday stand before You,
ready to enter Your Holy Kingdom. Amen

 

Prayer when visiting a cemetery in November

May God bless all the company of souls here.

May God and Mary bless you.

You too spent a while here just as we are now and we too will join you soon.

May we all be adorned in the beauty of the bright king of heaven.    Glenstal Book of Prayer
