Let Us Pray
Compassionate God, your ways are beyond our understanding, and your love for those whom you create is greater by far than ours; comfort all who grieve. Give them the faith to endure the wilderness of bereavement and bring them in the fullness of time to share in the light and joy of your eternal presence; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
