The death toll due to COVID-19, in Ireland, rises, seemingly unceasingly.
We ask you to remember and pray for the ten people whose deaths have been reported in the past twenty-four hours.
Ten families have been grieviously impacted; a son, a daughter, a brother, a sister, a mother, a father, a grandfather, a grandmother….a friend, has been lost to this devastating disease.
In your hands, O Lord,
we humbly entrust our brothers and sisters.
In this life you embraced them with your tender love;
deliver them now from every evil
and bid them eternal rest.
The old order has passed away:
welcome them into paradise,
where there will be no sorrow, no weeping or pain,
but fullness of peace and joy
with your Son and the Holy Spirit
forever and ever.
Amen.
