Prayers for the Deceased

In 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 eternal rest.

The old order has passed away:
welcome them into paradise,
where there will be no sorrow, no weeping or pain,
but fullness of peace and joy
with your Son and the Holy Spirit
forever and ever. Amen.

 

Prayer for the Faithful Departed

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

 

Prayer for the Souls in Purgatory 

O Lord, almighty God, we beseech you, by the very precious blood of Jesus, poured out during his Passion, to deliver the souls of Purgatory, and especially those which must as soon as possible enter your Glory, so that they begin right now to bless you for all eternity and intercede tirelessly for us. Amen. Sweet Heart of Mary, be our salvation.

Pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory

Eternal Father, I offer You the most Precious Blood of Your Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for all sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal Church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.

- By St. Gertrude the Great
