Photo Reflection ‘The Prayer’ - Celine Dion and Andrea Bocceli Final Commendation Fr. Sang: With faith in Jesus Christ, we reverently bring the body of Ralph, to be buried in its human imperfection. Let us pray with confidence to God, who gives life to all things, that He will raise this mortal body to the perfection and the company of the saints. May God give him a merciful judgment and forgive all his sins. May Christ the Good Shepherd, lead him safely home to be at peace with God our Father. And may he be happy forever with all the saints in the presence of the Eternal King. When Ralph was baptised, he was baptised into the death of Christ. The Father has raised the Lord Jesus from the dead, and we too have been raised in Him to live a new life for God. Through baptism, we have shared in the death of Jesus in order that may also share in His resurrection. In memory of Ralph’s Baptism, we use this Holy Water, and call on the Lord Jesus to welcome him into the glory of eternal life.
