INTERCESSIONS Today we remember our beloved family and friends who have gone before us and now sleeping, resting and enjoying the company of our Creator. Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen! Let us pray to the all-powerful Father who raised Jesus from the dead and gives new life to our mortal bodies, and say to him: Lord, give us new life in Christ. Father, through baptism we have been buried with your Son and have risen with him in his resurrection, – grant that we may walk in newness of life so that when we die, we may live with Christ for ever. Lord, give us new life in Christ. Provident Father, you have given us the living bread that has come down from heaven and which should always be eaten worthily,– grant that we may eat this bread worthily and be raised up to eternal life on the last day. Lord, give us new life in Christ. Lord, you sent an angel to comfort your Son in his agony, – give us the hope of your consolation when death draws near. Lord, give us new life in Christ. You delivered the three youths from the fiery furnace, – free your faithful ones from the punishment they suffer for their sins. Lord, give us new life in Christ. God of the living and the dead, you raised Jesus from the dead,– raise up those who have died and grant that we may share eternal glory with them. Lord, give us new life in Christ. Listen kindly to our prayers, O Lord, and, as our faith in your Son, raised from the dead, is deepened, so may our hope of resurrection for your departed servants also find new strength. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.– Amen.
