Take a moment to pray for our passed loved ones

Ní imithe uainn atá siad, ach imithe romhainn.

They are not gone from us, but gone before us.

During the month of November, we take time to remember those who we’ve met on life’s journey
and who have now passed on to eternal life. 
We may have known them only for a short time or they might have been someone very close to us.
We ask the Lord to help us to understand that love does not die.

Belief in the resurrection of the dead is an essential part of Christian revelation.
Death is the end of our earthly life, but ‘not of our existence’ (St Ambrose) since the soul is immortal.


‘Our lives are measured by time, in the course of which we change, grow old and,
as with all living beings on earth, death seems like the normal end of life’ (CCC, 1007).

Seen from the perspective of the faith, ‘death is the end of our earthly pilgrimage, of the time of grace and mercy which God offers us so as to work out his earthly life in keeping with the divine plan, and to decide his ultimate destiny’ (CCC, 1013).

Let Us Pray
Father, thank you for the special people in our lives ,
whom we are remembering in a special way during the month of November.
We thank you for being a compassionate God who walks with us
in the hour of dark moments of grief and loneliness.
We are thankful for all who continue to love and support us through our grief.
Lord, continue to be a light for us, giving us hope, direction and
May we now live our lives treasuring the memories of those special people we have known
and love and help us to bring light and hope to others.
We make this prayer through Christ our Lord. AMEN

 

Scripture Reading: Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

For everything there is a season,
and a time for everything under Heaven

A time to be born and a time to die
A time to be planted and a time to pick up what is planted.

A time to kill and a time to heal.
A time to tear down and a time to build up.

A time to weep and a time to laugh.
A time to mourn and a time to dance.

A time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together.
A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing.

A time to seek and a time to lose.
A time to keep and a time to cast away.

A time to be silent and a time to speak.
A time to love and a time to hate.

A time to war and a time for peace.

The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Let us pray for our Departed.

For all the people we know and love who have died and whom we remember today. 
In baptism they were given the pledge of eternal life, may they now enjoy a life with God.
Lord hear us.

For all the people who are sad because someone they love has died,
 may they receive the help, comfort and support they need.
Lord hear us.   

For all of us who have come together to pray, that we may be thankful for the gift of life and the love that we have received from those who are no longer with us.
Lord hear us.  

For all people who suffer because of illness or old age, may they have the peace that comes from God. 
Lord hear us.

For our own personal intentions……
Lord Hear Us.

Let us pray in the Words Jesus left us. 

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name;
Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen                                                       


Into your hands, O Lord,
We humbly entrust our brothers and sisters.
In this life you embraced them with your tender love;
deliver them now from every evil
and bid them enter eternal rest.

The old order has passed away:
welcome them into paradise,
where there will be no sorrow,
no weeping nor pain,
but fullness of peace and joy
with your Son and the Holy Spirit
forever and ever.
Amen.

Eternal rest, grant unto them O Lord
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace. Amen

May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.
