A Family Bereavement Prayer. God our Father, we remember in prayer those we have loved, who have had a special place in our hearts and in our lives and are now no longer here with us. We thank you Lord for the time you have given us to share together the gift of life. We pray for your pardon and a willingness to forgive one another for the hurt we caused. Help us to be at peace with the imperfections of our human relationship knowing that you accept us as we are. Comfort us through the memories our loved ones leave us. May those memories give us courage for our journey into the future. Grant them a place of peace and joy in your kingdom where there is no more suffering and no more grief. And when each of us is called to depart from this life may we be reunited with them in eternal happiness. We make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
