We also pray for our deceased benefactors, their families and friends. We give thanks to God for their lives and service to others.
May Jesus, in His mercy and compassion, open wide the doors of paradise and grant them a place in His presence forever – a place of peace, joy, and fullness of life.
Rest in Peace
Lord, be good to them,
And show them all your love.
Lord, be kind to them,
And grant them peace above.
Lord, be merciful to them,
And wipe their sins away.
Lord, be generous to them,
With all my heart I pray.
Lord, be gracious to them,
For the good that they have done.
Lord, be gentle to them,
For sufferings undergone.
Lord, may we meet again at last,
When heaven’s crown’s been won.
