You promised that whoever believes in You, even if he dies, will have life everlasting. May this sacred promise comfort us in our sadness, and bring the souls of Your servants departed to the fullness of the reward You have for us after this short life. O Savior of the world, reassure us in our belief that death is not an end to life, but rather the door through which we enter Your kingdom of perfect joy in Christ Jesus, our Lord, Amen May all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen |

You will not place upon us a heavier burden than we can carry. Let us trust in your infinite goodness and help. Thy will be done! Amen |
