Loving Father, to you the dead do not die and, in death, our life is changed - not ended.
We believe that all that binds us together in love and friendship does not end with death.
Hear our prayers for _____ who has died.
As you have made each of us in your image and likeness and have called us by name, hold him/her safely in your love in your kingdom of light, happiness and peace. Amen.
