Eternal God, We praise you for the great company of all those who have finished their course in faith and now rest from their labor. We praise you for those dear to us whom we name in our hearts before you. Especially we praise you for Bruce Bacon, whom you have graciously received into your presence. To all of these, grant your peace. Let perpetual light shine upon them; and help us so to believe where we have not seen, that your presence may lead us through our years, and bring us at last with them into the joy of your home not made with hands, but eternal in the heavens; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
HYMN “Jesus, Savior, Pilot Me” UMH 509
