Partners’ Prayer during the Month of November for the Faithful Departed
Almighty and merciful God, I commend to you all our deceased family, friends, and those who have no one to pray for them. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May the angels lead them into heaven.
May the splendid company of the saints surround them.
May Mary their mother lovingly look on them.
May they rejoice in your loving presence for all eternity.
May they see Jesus face-to-face, and standing always in his presence, experience with happy hearts his great love for them.
And may they rest in the eternal peace of the contemplation of you, their heavenly Father, in the presence of the Holy Spirit forever.
Amen
