For those who died in Hurricane Katrina and the aftermath:
Lord, as we mourn the sudden death of our brothers and sisters who died in Hurricane Katrina, comfort us with the great power of your love, and strengthen us in our faith that they are with you for ever. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Eternal Rest grant unto them O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them, may they rest in peace. Amen.
For those suffering due to Hurricane Katrina:
All powerful Father, God of mercy, look kindly on those who suffer due to Hurricane Katrina. Ease their burden and make their faith strong, that they may always have confidence and trust in your fatherly care. We ask this through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
Father of mercy, You always answer your people in their suffering. We thank You for your kindness and ask You to free us from evil, that we may serve You in happiness all our days. We ask this through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
