Let us pray the Rosary. (Pray the: Apostles Creed, 1 Our Father, 3 Hail

ALL: I BELIEVE in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I
believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the
power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under
Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the
dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is
seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living
and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the
communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting. Amen.

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, Hail our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to you do we send up our
sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious
advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us; and after this our exile, show unto
us the blessed fruit of Your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin
Mary.

All: And let our cry come unto You
Leader: Let us pray
Lord, help us to see death for what it really is: The end of poverty and the
beginning of riches; the end of frustration and the beginning of fulfillment,
the end of fear and the beginning of tranquility; the end of pain and the
beginning of joy; the end of weakness and the beginning of strength.
Let not grief overwhelm us or a sense of loss embitter us. But out of our
sadness, let there arise a new joy for so much given to us.
Cast out our fears and let not our hearts be troubled. Let your spirit of peace
come alive within our experience and hurt, our sorrow and isolation, our
sadness today and loneliness tomorrow.
We humbly commend to you, our dear MARINA whom You have called out of
this mortal life. You loved her always with great love. Now that you have
freed her from all evils of the earth, bring her into your paradise where there
is no more grief or mourning or sadness but peace and joy with Your Son and
the Holy Spirit forever. We thank you for all the blessings You have given in

her mortal life. We pray that she may be able to glorify You with the life that
she lived and the way she made use of her blessings.
Lord, grant that we will never forget that life is short and uncertain. Let
death remind us of our own mortality so that we may try to live our own lives
in holiness, justice and service to our brothers and sisters. So that we may
prepare our hearts, focused on building our treasures for our eternal life
more than our earthly life.
We pray for healing of all unhappy feelings death now leaves in our hearts.
Be with us, Lord, during our moments of sorrow and loneliness.
You are our Rock, our Fortress and our Strength. We trust in you and hope in
Your glorious resurrection. Give us the grace to see the blessings out of this
crisis and suffering as we lift up to You all our grief and sorrow, confident that
You will change our mourning to rejoicing, that our beloved MARINA now
rests in Your peace.

In the name of the Father/ and of the Son/ and of the Holy
Spirit/
AMEN
