The greatest gift you can give
to your deceased Family, Relatives, and Friends,
is to ask your Parish Priest to say a Mass for them.
They will be Eternally grateful to you.

The following Prayer, The "De Profundis",
is from CATHOLIC ONLINE
Psalm 129.
De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine;
Domine, exaudi vocem meam.
Fiant aures tuæ intendentes
in vocem deprecationis meæ.
Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine,
Domine, quis sustinebit ?
Quia apud te propitiatio est;
et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine.
Sustinuit anima mea in verbo ejus:
Speravit anima mea in Domino.
A custodia matutina usque ad noctem,
speret Israël in Domino.
Quia apud Dominum misericordia,
et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
Et ipse redimet Israël ex omnibus iniquitatibus ejus.
Out of the depths I have cried unto Thee, O Lord !
Lord, hear my voice.
Let Thine ears be attentive
to the voice of my supplication.
If Thou, O Lord, shalt mark iniquities:
Lord, who shall endureth ?
For with The Lord is merciful forgiveness:
I have waited upon Thee, O Lord.
My Soul doth rely on His word:
My Soul doth hope in The Lord.
From The Morning Watch even unto night,
let Israel hope in The Lord.
For, with The Lord, there is mercy:
And with Him plentiful redemption.
And He shall redeem Israel from all its iniquities.
Eternal Rest Give Unto Them, O Lord,
And Let Perpetual Light Shine Upon Them,
May They Rest In Peace.
Amen.
