Father, be a comfort around this grief-stricken family. Lord, we don’t know whether they know You. If they don’t, then show them who You are during this most grievous time. Shower them with Your love. In Jesus’ Name. Amen

Father, we don’t know why or what. We don’t need to know, because You do. We just need to pray for Your movement and comfort in this sad situation for the Casten family. Father, in Jesus name, bring glory to Your name and beauty in these ashes, in Your perfect time. Thank You for Your love and compassion. Amen.
