As darkness falls, please take time to remember those whose lives have been engulfed in great darkness - remembering those who died this past year and standing alongside those whose grief is greatest . . .
* Light a candle . . .
* Fall silent to remember . . .
* Pray the prayer . . .
Lord of light and life,
where there is darkness,
let your light shine, the light that brings new life.
As we remember those who have lost their lives,
we pray . . .
let your light shine.
As we remember those who are left, whose lives have
changed,
we pray . . .
let your light shine.
As we remember these difficult times,
we pray . . .
let your light shine on all of us and before us to see a way
through and beyond.
Let your light shine on the whole of
creation today,
tomorrow and forever.
In the name of Jesus who is light and life for all.
AMEN.
* Post a picture of your candle. . .
* Send a card or a note to someone you have remembered
