In this moment of
sorrow
The Lord is in
our midst
And comforts us
with His word;
Blessed are the
sorrowful; they shall be consoled.
Let us pray:
Loving and
merciful God, we entrust our brother / sister to your mercy. You loved him /
her greatly in this life; now that he/she is freed from all its cares, give
him/her happiness and peace forever. The old order has passed away: welcome
him/her now into paradise where there will be no more sorrow, no more weeping
or pain, but only peace and joy with Jesus, Your Son, and the Holy Spirit for
ever and ever.
AMEN (Response )
A reading from
the Holy Gospel according to Luke 23:44-46
It was now midday,
and darkness came over the whole land until mid afternoon with an eclipse of
the sun. the curtain in the sanctuary was torn in two. Jesus uttered a loud cry
and said, “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” After he said this, He
expired.
The Gospel of the
Lord.
Saints of God,
come to his/her aid! Come to meet him/her, angels of the Lord!

Let us pray for
the coming of the kingdom as Jesus taught us: OUR FATHER...
Lord Jesus, our
Redeemer, You willingly gave Yourself up to death so that all people might be
saved and pass from death into new life. Listen to our prayers, look with love
into new life. Listen to our prayers, look with love on Your people who mourn
and pray for their brother/sister, (MENTION NAME). lord Jesus, holy and
compassionate: forgive (MENTION NAME) his/her sins. By dying You opened the
gates of life for those who believe in You: do not let our brother/sister be
