CHAPEL OF REMEMBRANCE - PRAYER FOR OUR DEPARTED FAMILY AND FRIENDS


IT IS A HOLY THOUGHT AND DEED TO PRAY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE PASSED ON BEFORE US.
As we celebrate the feast of All Saints [November 1st] and All Souls [November 2nd], let us pray for our departed loved ones. 

Many pray for their departed loved ones by attending holy Mass and by devout  prayer.
It is an ancient and holy custom to approach a good priest to celebrate the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the intentions of the deceased.
Many congregants write the names of those departed on a list known as an Altar List.

Why not remember your family and friends in this special way?
Here, in this Chapel of Remembrance, pray for those who have gone before. Also in your kindness offer up prayer for those who have no one to pray for them, and offer especial prayer for those most in need.

Many parishes offer an altar list on which you can write the names of those for whom you wish to pray.

CHAPEL OF REMEMBRANCE
Quiet your thoughts. Now spend some time in prayer for your departed family and friends.

PRAYER:
"Lord, remember family and friends gone to their rest in the hope of rising again. May they rest in peace."
