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 good that they may have done.

Lord be gentle with them for sufferings undergone.

Lord may we meet again when Heaven’s crown is won.

Amen.

Cemetery Devotions: this weekend we begin our annual prayers for all who are buried in the cemeteries of our parish.

Thank you to everyone who looks after the cemeteries and family plots throughout the year.

We show our respect for the dead by praying for them and keeping their burial place tidy.
