Mass for Bereaved

Our Annual Mass for Bereaved will be held in St. Oliver’s Church on Tuesday 18th November at 7.30 p.m.  All who have been bereaved at any time are welcome.  There will be a special Ceremony of Remembrance, during which you will be invited to light a candle in memory of your departed loved ones.  You are most welcome for a “cuppa” in our Parish Centre afterwards.

 

Watch over your Church

O Lord, we pray to you.  Watch over your Church make it perfect in your love.  O Lord, we pray to you.

Gather all the baptised into the unity of the faith.  O Lord, we pray to you.

Lead all people to the light of the Gospel.  O Lord, we pray to you.

Give to all people peace in justice.  O Lord, we pray to you.

To those who remember the poor give everlasting reward.  O Lord, we pray to you.

Strengthen all our brothers and sisters in the service of  the Kingdom.  O Lord, we pray to you.

Lift our souls toward the desires of heaven.  O Lord, we pray to you.

Give to our deceased brothers and sisters life in eternal light.  O Lord, we pray to you.

(Lucien Deiss, Biblical Prayers)
