My Brothers and Sisters:

A former Senior Warden of my Parish, Barry by name, fell asleep in the Lord Sunday morning at 9:01. Please pray for the repose of his soul.

for the R E P O S E

of Those Who have FALLEN ASLEEP
Code: 
   **KONTAKION 1**
O Thou Who by Thy inscrutable Providence didst prepare the world for eternal beatitude and Who appointest times and seasons and the manner of our end: Forgive, O Lord, those who have died in past ages all their sins, receive them into the realms of light and joy, hasten to open Thy Fatherly arms to them, and hear us who celebrate their memory and sing:*
*
O Lord of unutterable Love, remember Thy servants who have fallen asleep.
IKOS 1
​
 O Thou Who savest Adam and the whole human race from eternal perdition, Thou didst send Thy Son into the world, O Good God, and by His Cross and Resurrection Thou hast granted us also eternal life. Trusting to Thy infinite mercy, we look for the deathless Kingdom of Thy Glory, we implore Thee to grant it to those who have fallen asleep, and we pray: Gladden, O Lord, souls wearied by the storms of life, that earth’s sorrows and signings may not bury them in oblivion. Hear them, O Lord, in Thy bosom, as a mother responds to her children, and say to them: Your sins are forgiven you. Receive them, O Lord, into Thy calm and blessed haven that they may rejoice in Thy divine glory.*
*
O Lord of unutterable Love, remember Thy servants who have fallen asleep.* PRAYER FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP**
*…

For Thou art the Resurrection, the Life, and the Repose of Thy servants who have fallen asleep (NAMES), O Christ our God, and to Thee we send up glory, with Thy Eternal Father, and Thy Holy and Good and Lifegiving Spirit, both now and ever and to the ages of ages. Amen.*

Please pray the whole of the Akathist for Barry if you have the chance. Please change "Orthodox to “Catholic” to make it easier to pray this Akathist if you have to…

And this from the Wisdom of Solomon:

But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God,
and no torment will ever touch them.
  • In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died,*
    and their departure was thought to be an affliction,
  • And their going from us to be their destruction;*
    but they are at peace.
For though in the sight of men they were punished,*
their hope is full of immortality.
  • Having been disciplined a little, *
    they will receive great good,
  • because God tested them and *
    found them worthy of himself;
  • Like gold in the furnace he tried them,*
  • and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them.*
In the time of their visitation they will shine forth,*
  • and will run like sparks through the stubble.*
  • They will govern nations and rule over peoples,*
  • and the Lord will reign over them for ever.*
  • Those who trust in him will understand truth,*
  • and the faithful will abide with him in love,*
  • because grace and mercy are upon his elect,*
  • and he watches over his holy ones.*
Wisdom 3:1-9 RSV

Please add scriptures and meditations that you think might apply and Prayers for the Dead if you have them in your Prayer Books.

Thank you.

Your Brother in Christ, Michael
 
Heavenly Father, please embrace with mercy Barry, and all those who die in Your friendship. Welcome them into Your eternal banquet of joy. Mary, pray with us. Amen. :gopray2:
