Prayer for Tom O Gorman
Prayer for Tom O Gorman:
Tom O Gorman, 39, Catholic journalist and researcher at the Iona
Institute, was found murdered at his home in Castleknock early on
Sunday morning.
Lord, We pray for the soul of Tom O Gorman: may he enter quickly into
the fullness of heaven and may he rest in peace, held close in Your
embrace. Hear our prayer for his family, friends, and colleagues: may
You help them in their grief and sorrow, and hear their prayers for
justice and healing. May you help them come to terms with this
senseless act of violence and give strength to all those who are
called to forgive in difficult circumstances. Lord, in Your mercy,
hear our prayer. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and let
perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful
departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. In the name of the
Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
