O God of spirits and of all flesh,
You have trampled down death
and have abolished
the power of the devil,
giving life to Your world.
Give rest to the soul
of Your departed servant John
in a place of light,
in a place of repose,
in a place of refreshment,
where there is no pain,
sorrow, and suffering.
As a good and loving God,
forgive every sin he has committed
in thought, word or deed,
for there is no one who lives
and is sinless.
You alone are without sin.
Your righteousness
is an everlasting righteousness,
and Your word is truth.
For You are the resurrection,
the life
and the repose of Your departed servant John
Christ our God,
and to You we give glory,
with Your eternal Father
and Your all holy,
good and life-giving Spirit,
now and forever and to the ages of ages.

And oh, yeah, lets just forget about those photos with jihadis and the massacre of all those Christians and others in Syria and Iraq. Thanks for the pass, God!
Somehow, I don’t think Churchianity is going to help that fraud.
Amen!
Beautiful, thank you. This is really not the time for political rehashing but a time to ask for God’s blessing on his departed soul.
