RECEPTION OF THE BODY
The Clergy meets the body at the entrance to the church
Priest: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit.
People: Amen
Priest: With faith in Jesus Christ, we receive the body of our
handmaiden Abimbola Olayinka for burial. Let us pray with
confidence in God, the Giver of life, that He will raise her to
perfection in the company of the Saints.
Silence may be kept, after which the Celebrant says:
Priest: Deliver Your handmaiden Abimbola Olayinka O sovereign Lord
Jesus Christ, from all evil, and set her free from every bond,
that she may rest with all your Saints in the eternal
habitations, where with the Father and the Holy Spirit you live
and reign, one God, for ever and ever. Amen
Priest: Rest eternal grant unto her O Lord
People: And let light perpetual shine upon her
Priest: I have set the Lord always before me for He is on my right
hand, therefore I shall not fall.
People: Wherefore my heart was glad and my glory rejoiced; my
flesh shall also rest in hope
Priest: For why? Thou shall not leave my soul in hell; neither shalt
Thou suffer Thy Holy One to see corruption.
People: Thou shall show me the path of life, in Thy presence is the
fullness of joy, and at thy right hand is pleasure forever
more.
Priest: Rest eternal grant unto her, O Lord
People: And let light perpetual shine upon them
