PRAYER FOR ALL SOULS

PRAYER FOR ALL SOULS

Dear God in Heaven,

On this day we pray for our loved ones,
And all those who have gone before us.

We pray especially for . . .

Gilbert Delgado, Manuel Delgado, Cecilia Delgado, Ray Delgado, Leo Delgado, Paul Delgado, Joe Regalado, Angel Bernal, Rosalie Bernal, Maria Bernal, Esperanza Ponce, Chano Fierro, Amina Fierro, Laurel Fierro, Albert Holling, Sr., Celia Hollling, Albert Holling, Jr., Johnny Sanchez, Rod Nuanes, Sr., Emma Nuanes, David Nuanes, Gonzalo (“Jerry”) Guerrero, Francisco (Quico) Escobar, Juliet Montez, Richard Montez, Sal Medina, Celso Castro, Yvonne Castro, Bob Sanchez, Peter Sanchez, Elaine Sanchez, Melvin Lay, Nena Lay, Dario Tarin, Margaret Melendez, Patricia Santana's grandmother and Leisa Thompson's parents, and for all those who have gone to their rest in the hope of rising again.

They have lived their journey here on earth
And now dwell in the next, we pray for your mercy.

We ask that the less than worthy conduct, acts,
and thoughts of all are forgiven them,
and that their charitable hearts and righteous deeds
You will find worthy for Your Kingdom.

You gave your Son to us and he suffered greatly,
So that we may know You and be raised as He was.
May the holy souls of your church be cleansed and purified,
Allowing their entry into Heaven to be brought to fruition.

May all the departed now be in a state of grace
And sit at Jesus’ right hand to inherit the kingdom of God.
May we, the living, be prepared for the day when,
The Son of Man comes in his glory and all the angels with him.

Amen.
