Please pray for Maris:
For The Many Who Have Died
The Good Shepherd lead them
Where they are transformed
That they may breathe
The air of eternal Being.
Where they work as soul
For worlds to come
The grace of the Spirit
Unite us with them.

and please pray for us who are left behind:
Short Intercession
(for those who mourn)
May the Good Shepherd lead us
Into peace of heart
Into hopeful thinking,
Into patient strength of will;
Health of body,
Harmony of soul,
Clarity of spirit,
Now, and in the time to come.
Adam Bittleston
