II INTRODUCTORY REFLECTIONS:

For us Christians, death does not exist.Rather, it is the starting point and not the end.In death, life is not extinguished but it is beingchanged because death is entering into anotherlife.

alive. !e "no# that heshe is ever$#here, even

First Reading

Wisdom 3:1-9

The souls of the just are in the hand of God,/and no

torment shall touch them./They seemed, in the view of the

foolish, to e dead!/ and their "assin# away was thou#ht an

a$iction/ and their #oin# forth from us, utter destruction./ %ut they are in "eace./ &or if in the li#ht of others, indeed'

they e "unished, / yet it is their ho"e full of immortality! /

they shall e #reatly lessed, /ecause God tried them /

and found them worthy of (imself. / )s #old in the furnace,

(e "roved them, / and as sacri*cial o+erin# (e too them

to (imself. / n the time of their visitasion they shall shine, /

and shall dart aout as s"ars throu#h stule! / they shall

jud#e nations and rule over "eo"les, / and the ord shall e

their in# forever. / Those who trust in (im shall

understand truth, / and the faithful shall aide with (im in

love: / ecause #race and mercy are with (is holy ones , /

and (is care is with his elect.

God will make a way

Where there seems to be no way

He works in ways we cannot see

He will make a way for meHe will be my guide

Hold me closely to His side

With love and strength for each new day

He will make a way

He will make a way

By a roadway in the wildernessHe'll lead me

And rivers in the desert will I see

Heaven and earth will fade

But His word will still remain

He will do something new today.
