Departed (Saturday)

Christianity. Orthodoxy. Catholicism. Sense of life. Prayers.

I tell you, my friends, don't be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him, who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. Yes, I tell you, fear him. Aren't five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by God. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore don't be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows. I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, him will the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God; but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of the angels of God.

	Departed (Saturday)

O God of spirits and of all flesh, Who has conquered death and destroyed Satan and Who has granted life to Your world: O Lord, rest the soul(s) of Your departed servant(s) (name) in a serene, luxuriant and peaceful place where all pain and sorrow and lamentation are absent. As a gracious God Who loves mankind, forgive all transgressions committed by (him, her, them) by word or deed or thought, for there is no one living who does not sin; You alone are without sin, Your truth is truth in eternity and Your word is truth. For You are the resurrection, life and repose of Your departed servant(s) (name) O Christ our God, and we give glory to You and to Your eternal Father and You most holy, gracious and life-giving Spirit, now and ever and forever. Amen.
