2 2 11 What is Dying? Order of Service Entrance Song ~ THE PRAYER (CD) (Andrea Bocelli and Heather Headley ) I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go. And help us to be wise in times when we don't know. Let this be our prayer, as we go our way. Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace To a place where we'll be safe. La luce che tu dai, nel cuore resterà A ricordarci che, l'eterna stella sei. I pray we'll find your light, and hold within our hearts And stars go out each night, ai, ai... Nella mia preghiera, quanta fede c è. Lead us to a place, let this be our prayer When shadows fill our day, guide us with your grace Give us faith so we'll be safe. Sogniamo un mondo senza più violenza, Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza. Ognuno dia una mano al suo vicino, Simbolo di pace...di fraternità. La forza che ci dai E desiderio te, ognuno trovi amor, Intorno e dentro se. Let this be our prayer, just like every child. We ask that life be kind, and watch us from above. We hope each soul will find, another soul to love. Let this be our prayer, just like every child. A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says, she is gone. Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all; she is just as large as when I saw her. The diminished size, and total loss of sight is in me, not in her, and just at the moment when someone at my side says, she is gone. There are others who are watching her coming, and other voices take up a glad shout, Here she comes! and this is dying. Che Cosa Vuol Dire Morire La nave parte ed io rimango li a guardarla e piano piano si allontana verso l orrizzonte e qualcuno accanto a me disse È andata via dov è andata? Io risposi È solo sparita dalla mia visione, ecco tutto. È ancora grande come quando la vedevo. La sua immagine diminuita è adesso sparita solo ai miei occhi. In realtà lei esiste ancora. E in quel momento che qualcuno a finaco a me disse se n è andata ci sono altri che la vedono arrivare e altre voci che acclamano gioiosamente Ecco che arriva! (Bishop Brent)

3 10 3 Angela, may Christ, who called you, take you to himself; may angels lead you to Abraham's side. All ~ Receive her soul and present her to God the most high. Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. All ~ Receive her soul and present her to God the most high. Prayer of Commendation Father, into your hands, we commend Angela. We are confident that with all who have died in Christ, she will be raised to life on the last day and live with Christ forever. We thank you for the blessings you have given her in this life to show your Fatherly care for all of us and the fellowship which is ours with all the saints in Jesus Christ. Lord, hear our prayer; welcome Angela to paradise and help us to comfort one another with the assurance of our faith until we all meet in Christ to be with you and with Angela forever. We ask this through Christ our Lord. All ~ Amen. Prayer of Committal Final Blessing and Exit Recessional Song ~ CON TE PARTIRÒ (CD) (Andrea Bocelli) Needs to find a place, guide us with your grace Give us faith so we'll be safe, E la fede che hai acceso in noi Sento che ci salverai... Greeting and Introduction Lighting of Paschal Candle ~ Simon Through her Baptism Angela was enlightened by Christ. All ~ May that light guide her to eternal life. Sprinkling of the Holy Water In the waters of Baptism, Angela died with Christ and rose with Him into a new life. All ~ May she now share eternal life with Christ in glory. Placing of the White Pall ~ Aurora and Franco On the day of her Baptism Angela was clothed in Christ and given Christian dignity for ever. All ~ May Christ now enfold her in His love and bring her into eternal life.

4 4 9 Placing of Symbols (Angela s great grand children to bring precious symbols of Angela to altar) We now place some symbols of Angela's life to remind us of her life with us on earth. All ~ May these symbols comfort us and remind us of Angela's journey in life. Words of Remembrance ~ Franco and Connie Cudini Opening Prayer First Reading Wisdom 3:1-9 ~ Daniel Cudini A reading from the book of Wisdom ~ He accepted them as a holocaust. The souls of the virtuous are in the hands of God, no torment shall ever touch them. In the eyes of the unwise, they did appear to die, their going looked like a disaster, their leaving us, like annihilation, but they are in peace. If they experienced punishment as men see it, their hope was rich with immortality, slight was their affliction, great will their blessings be. God has put them to the test and proved them worthy to be with Him, he has tested them like gold in a furnace, and accepted them as a holocaust. The Word of the Lord. Responsorial Psalm ~ ~ Gabrielle Hausler Sign of Peace Communion Communion Hymn ~ AVE MARIA (CD) (Andrea Bocelli) Audio Visual Presentation ~ MY HEART WILL GO ON (CD) (Celine Dion) Prayer after Communion Prayers of Final Farewell and Commendation Invitation to Prayer With faith in Jesus Christ, we reverently bring the body of Angela to be buried in its human imperfection. Let us pray with confidence to God, who gives life to all things, that he will raise up this mortal body to the perfection and the company of the saints. May God give her a merciful judgement and forgive her sins. May Christ the Good Shepherd, lead her safely home to be at peace with God our Father, and may she be happy forever with all the saints. Signs of Farewell (Sprinkling with Holy Water and Incensing of the coffin) Song of Farewell Saints of God, come to her aid! Hasten to meet her, angels of the Lord! All ~ Receive her soul and present her to God the most high.

5 8 5 Lord, we ask you to deepen our faith that beyond this earthly life, your life of eternal happiness and peace awaits those who have lived according to your will. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Offertory Prayers Procession of Gifts ~ Cheryl and Sarah Valentini Offertory Hymn ~ HAIL MARY (GENTLE WOMAN) INSTRUMENTAL Prayer over the Gifts Eucharistic Prayer Acclamation At Consecration All ~ We proclaim your death O Lord, and profess your resurrection until you come again. The Lord s Prayer All ~ Our Father who art in heaven Hallowed be thy name Thy Kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread And forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who trespass against us And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil. Response: To you, O Lord, I lift my soul Remember your mercy, Lord, and the love you have shown from of old. In your love remember me, because of your goodness, O Lord. ~ To you, O Lord, I lift my soul Relieve the anguish of my heart and set me free from my distress. See my affliction and my toil and take all my sins away. ~ To you, O Lord, I lift my soul Preserve my life and rescue me, do not disappoint me, you are my refuge. May innocence and uprightness protect me for my hope is in you, O Lord. ~ To you, O Lord, I lift my soul Second Reading Corinthians 4:14-5:1 ~ Marisa Primerano A reading from the Second letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians What is seen is transitory; what is unseen is eternal. We know that he who raised the Lord Jesus to life will raise us with Jesus in our turn, and put us by his side and you with us. You see, all this is for your benefit, so that the more grace is multiplied among people, the more thanksgiving there will be, to the glory of God. That is why there is no weakening on our part, and instead, though this outer man of ours may be falling into decay, the inner man is renewed day by day. Yes, the troubles which are soon over, though they weigh little, train us for the carrying of a weight of eternal glory which is out of all proportion to them. And so we have no eyes for things that are visible, but only for things that are invisible; for visible things last only for a time, and the invisible things are eternal. For we know that when the tent that we live in on earth is folded up, there is a house built by God for us, an everlasting home not made by human hands, in the heavens. The Word of the Lord. All ~ Thanks be to God.

6 6 7 Gospel Acclamation All ~ Alleluia, Alleluia! God loved the world so much, he gave us his only Son, that all who believe in him might have eternal life. Alleluia. Gospel The Lord be with you. All ~ And with your spirit. A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John. All ~ Glory to you, O Lord. Jesus said to his disciples: "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God still, and trust in me. There are many rooms in my Father's house; if there were not, I should have told you. I am going now to prepare a place for you, and after I have gone and prepared you a place, I shall return to take you with me; so that where I am you may be too. You know the way to the place where I am going. The Gospel of the Lord. All ~ Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ.
