PASTORAL LETTERS
May their experience of aloneness be transformed into everlasting communion.
May their death be transformed by their passage into the fullness of life.
May You, who have the power to console hearts and to cultivate hope, apply a healing
balm to these hearts stricken by such sadness.
Carry them in their pain, renew their faith in your Love, and strengthen their hope of
being united with their loved ones one day.
Guide us along this path as we journey in grief and in solidarity with those who
mourn.
Through Mary’s intercession, let us entrust these deceased members and those who
grieve their loss to the gentleness and strength of Jesus Christ.
