The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed
Dear parishioners:
The entire Church pauses today to remember the dead.
We remember those long forgotten, those who have been
commended to the Lord many years ago, and those who have
most recently died. This past year we have seen the passing
of many dear friends and members of this parish family.
Funeral Masses have been celebrated over 65 times in our
Church this past year. And while the comforting rituals of
burial restore some order to our lives, each celebration has
been marked both with the profound sadness of loss and the
Paschal Hope of the Resurrection.
During the Season of Lent, we often gather to publicly pray
the Stations of the Cross. There is always a reading which
explains the station, a sung acclamation which proclaims
our hope, “Dying you destroyed our death, rising you restore
our life, Lord Jesus come in glory,” and a Collect lead by the
presider. At the Fourteenth Station, when the body of Jesus is
placed into the tomb, we pray:
to think of Magdalen’s numb heart, she who loved him like
no other. Give us the fortitude to wait outside the tomb
whenever one whom we love rests inside. And bring to
perpetual light and peace all whom we have buried from
this church this year.
Thus is our prayer this day. As we have been touched with
sorrow, we have also been greatly blessed with joyful hope.
Once again, many, many thanks to all who worked so hard
to make our annual Fall Festival such a great success! Each
year I say that it was the best ever and this year it is especially
true! Special thanks to Pete Stauder, Michelle Benigno and
Deacon Rafael Gonzalez, and Bryan Hayes for serving as the
overall chairpersons, and to all who have made this great
endeavor possible! You all outdid yourselves!
May the week ahead be filled with countless graces and
blessings!
“Let the dead bury the dead,” your Son told us, O God.
And we know that Joseph’s chest was as heavy with sorrow
as were his hands with Christ’s lifeless body. And we grieve

Prayer for Visiting a Grave on All Souls Day
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit. Amen.
Leader:Praise be to God our Father, who raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Blessed be God for ever.
All:
Blessed be God for ever.
Reading from Corinthians
We know that if our earthly dwelling, a tent, should be
destroyed, we have a building from God, a dwelling not
made with hands, eternal in heaven. [2 Corinthians 5:1]
Leader:
Lord God, whose days are without end and whose mercies
beyond counting, keep us mindful that life is short and the
hour of death unknown. Let your Spirit guide our days on
earth in the ways of holiness and justice, that we may serve
you in union with the whole Church, sure in faith, strong
in hope, perfect in love. And when our earthly journey is
ended, lead us rejoicing into your kingdom, where you live
for ever and ever. R. Amen.
Leader:Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
R.
And let perpetual light shine upon them.
Leader:May they rest in peace.
R.Amen.
Leader:May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace.
R.Amen.
