Uncle Jim: I was sad to hear of Aunt Bobbie's passing; Keith contacted me with the news today (Saturday). Our prayers are with you and with Bobbie's children and family during this time of loss and mourning. - Nancy Jane and Fr. Lawrence and family
O LORD Jesus Christ, who thyself didst weep beside the grave, and art touched with the feeling of our sorrows; Fulfil now thy promise that thou wilt not leave thy people
comfortless, but wilt come to them. Reveal thyself unto thine afflicted servants, for whom our prayers are desired, and cause them to hear thee saying, I am the Resurrection and the Life. Help them, O Lord, to turn to thee with true discernment, and to abide in thee through living faith; that, finding now the comfort of thy presence, they may have also a sure confidence in thee for all that is to come: until the day break, and the shadows flee away. Hear us for thy great mercy’s sake, O Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (REC BCP, 66)
