Fr :
Therefore , as we celebrate the memorial of his Death and Resurrection , we offer you , Lord , the bread of life and the chalice of salvation , giving thanks that you have held us worthy to be in your presence and minister to you .
Humbly we pray that , partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ , we may be gathered into one by the Holy Spirit .
Remember , Lord , your Church spread throughout the world ; and bring him to the fullness of charity , together with Francis our Pope and Peter our Bishop and all the clergy .
Remember your servant William whom you have called from this world to yourself . Grant that he who was united with your Son in death like his , may also be one with him in his Resurrection .
Remember also our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of resurrection , and all who have died in your mercy : welcome them into the light of your face .
Have mercy on us all , we pray , that with the Blessed Virgin Mary , Mother of God , with blessed Joseph her spouse , with the blessed Apostles , and all the Saints who have pleased you throughout the ages , we may merit to be co-heirs to eternal life , and may praise and glorify you through your Son , Jesus Christ .
Through him and with him , and in him , O God , almighty Father , in the unity of the Holy Spirit , all glory and honour is yours for ever and ever .
All : Amen .
