Jillene Delahunty : For all those who could not be present today on account of the Covid pandemic , that they be consoled also in their sadness at Mary ’ s death . Lord , hear us . All : Lord , hear our prayer .
Bernadette Lipscombe : For all the doctors , nurses and carers who so generously and professionally attended to Mary ’ s needs over many years , especially those at Belmont Grange , that their works of service be richly blessed . Lord , hear us . All : Lord , hear our prayer .
Cel : Lord hear the prayers we offer in our sorrow for the loss of Mary . As we believe that she is now living in your kingdom , so may we one day join her and together share the joy of eternal life . This we ask through Christ our Lord . All : Amen .
The Lord ’ s Prayer
Cel : At the Saviour ’ s command and formed by divine teaching , we dare to say :
All : Our Father , who art in heaven , hallowed be thy name . Thy kingdom come . Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven . Give us this day our daily bread . And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us ; and lead us not into temptation , but deliver us from evil .
