I remember the gifts of all who have passed.
On
days when the nation comes together in remembering, I pray for those
who mourn. I may attend a memorial service, concert, or prayer circle.
Regardless of the method I choose, I honor those who have passed as I
affirm peace for their families and in the world. I also remember
the anniversaries of the passing of my own loved ones. I give thanks for
their wit and wisdom, their help and love. I am who I am because of
their part in my life. I honor who they were and their contribution to
the world. How blessed I am for family, friends, teachers, mentors—for
all of those who have helped me grow. I remember them today with
heartfelt gratitude and love.
Then
he took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and
gave it to them, saying, “Do this in remembrance of me.”—Luke 22:19
