Eternal rest grant unto her, oh Lord. And let perpetual Light shine upon her. May she rest in Peace. Amen.
I pray the community of saints join us in this prayer, and that they take this prayer before the throne of the Most High. I ask this in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Re: The Faithfully Departed: Memories and Prayers
Loving God,
We lift our intentions for the repose of the soul of my Uncle Dale who passed away suddenly. Please have mercy on Uncle Dale and we hope that dear Jesus has met Uncle Dale and will take him to that special place in your house that has been prepared just for him. Please also comfort and console the family members and friends, dear Lord.
We pray in the name of your beloved son Jesus, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever.
Amen.

God brings friends into our lives for different reasons. Some walk with us for a short period of time. And others walk along side us for longer periods.
Sometimes it is not always the amount of time, but rather the shared experiences, both good and bad, and the helping of one an other through those experiences, that can speak volumes about a friendship.
The passing of either a long term or short term friend can be painful dependent upon the impact of the individual, rather than the amount of time spent with us.
I pray for Maura that she be reminded of the promises of Christ. And I promise to pray for the soul of her childhood friend, and all the faithful departed:
Eternal Rest grant unto them, oh Lord. And let Perpetual Light shine upon them. May they rest in Peace. Amen
Dear Lord, comfort Maura as she mourns the loss of a childhood friend. Remind her of the promises of your Son, Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

I am absolutely confused with HOW to use Catholic Answers to its greatest advantage. Please pray for the soul of my grandson who died at age 2 1/2. He is so missed. I can't wait to see him again. "Eye has not seen nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man, what God has prepared for those who love Him[/size]." For as little as he was, my grandson KNEW God as only God can know....These word are of such consolation to me.
