CATHOLIC FUNERAL RITES AND CEMETERY SERVICES The Community Outreach Staff from Our Mother of Sorrows Catholic Cemetery, a Ministry of the Diocese of Reno, will be here on April 2nd and 3rd to discuss the spiritual and prac cal reasons for learning about Catholic Funeral Rites and Cemetery Services. A er each Mass, there will be a short presenta on along with a Q&A session. Our Catholic Funeral tradi on affirms our belief in the communion of saints and our trust in Jesus’ promise of everlas ng life. Burying the dead is one of the Corporal Works of Mercy, incumbent upon every Chris an. The Church’s rituals enable us to honor our dearly departed with solemn and tender devo on. I take this opportunity to recommend that all Catholics explore the services offered by Our Mother of Sorrows to be er understand the spiritual and financial benefits of planning ahead for their funeral and cemetery needs. The burial plans they offer are flexible, affordable, & designed to meet your cemetery needs. Their facility, close parish rela onships and compassionate counselors ensure that your funeral Mass and burial commi al are well planned. Their onsite Most Holy Redeemer Chapel has capacity for 80 and is picturesque with its hand laid mosaic works of art, stained glass and tradi onal Catholic altar. By taking advantage of this opportunity to understand the importance of a Catholic funeral and burial, you will walk away with a be er understanding of the importance and ease of planning ahead to ensure peace of mind for you and your family.

DETERMINATION ENTRADA El Señor es mi luz y mi salvación, el Señor es la defensa de mi vida; si el Señor es mi luz a quien temeré, quien me hará temblar. Una cosa pido al Señor: habitar por siempre en su casa, gozar de la dulzura del Señor, contemplando su templo santo. (al estribillo) No me escondas tu rostro Señor, buscaré todo el día tu rostro. Si mi padre y mi madre me abandonan el Señor me recogerá. (al estribillo) Oh Señor, enséñame el camino, guíame por la senda verdadera. Gozaré de la dulzura del Señor en la tierra de la vida. (al estribillo) SALMO El Señor ha estado grande con nosotros y estamos alegres. OFERTORIO Purifícame. Señor, con tu gracia. Purifícame, Señor, con la lluvia de tu gracia. Purifícame. Lléname, Señor, de esperanza y al entrar en tu morada, purifícame. Transfigúrame. Señor, a tu imagen. Transfigúrame, Señor a la luz de tus palabras. Transfigúrame. Guíame, Señor, por tus sendas y al calor de tu mirada, transfigúrame. A tu lado quiero estar, en tu mesa. A tu lado quiero estar, y gozar de tu presencia compartir tu pan. Yo no sé Señor si soy digno de que hagas de mi casa tu morada. Pero yo quisiera ser tu invitado. Tu invitado quiero ser y sentir con mis hermanos. Que tu cuerpo es pan, pan de eternidad, pan del cielo, vino nuevo de la alianza, sacramento. En tu nombre anunciaré tu evangelio. En tu nombre anunciaré el mensaje de tu reino. Quiero serte fiel. Tú vendrás, Señor, a mi lado. Llevaré la buena nueva a mis hermanos. COMUNIÓN Es mi cuerpo, tomad y comed, es mi sangre, tomad y bebed; porque yo soy vida, yo soy amor, oh Señor nos reuniremos en tu amor. El Señor nos da su amor como nadie nos lo dió, Él nos guía como estrella en la intensa oscuridad; al partir juntos el pan, Él nos llena con su amor, pan de Dios, el pan comamos de amistad. El Señor nos da su amor como nadie nos lo dió, para la gente del pueblo es el hijo de José; con sus manos trabajó como hacían los demás, conoció los sufrimientos y el dolor. El Señor nos da su amor como nadie nos lo dió y su amor tan grande que lo condujo hasta la cruz; pero más pudo el amor que la muerte y el dolor, vencedor tres días después resucitó. El Señor nos da su amor como nadie nos lo dió. En la cruz el salvador su propia vida nos donó; Y toda la humanidad es el cuerpo del Señor nada puede separarnos de su amor. SALIDA Te pedimos perdón, Señor, por el bien que no hemos hecho, por lo que hemos hecho mal, Señor, piedad. Perdón por haber vivido sin fijarme en los demás. Perdón por no haber querido en mi hermano confiar. (al estribillo) Perdón por haber herido sentimientos de igualdad. Perdón por no haber seguido los deseos de bondad. (al estribillo) Perdón porque he permitido no acusarme y acusar. Perdón por no haber vivido en pobreza y humildad. (al estribillo) Perdón por no haber oído la palabra de la verdad. Perdón por no haberte visto, compañero en mi caminar.
