A Prayer:
Lord, when a lost takes us through such deep pain, we cannot understand-we can only believe.
Please help us to believe in your mercy and wisdom…give us your consolation, that we may comfort one another in this, our moment of loss. Strengthen us, Lord, and draw us all closer in your love and precious peace.
Amen
