Praying for the Dead: 

Funerals at Nativity of Mary

Baptized as sons and daughters of God the Father, let us practice Spiritual Works of Mercy and remember our brothers and sisters in Christ in our prayers. Let us pray for the repose of the souls of those who have died, let us pray for their family and friends who are mourning, and let us comfort the sorrowful in their grief. For more information about the Spiritual Works of Mercy, please see this page from the USCCB.
