Let us pray:
God of our ancestors who set their hearts on You, of those who fell asleep in peace, and of those who won the martyrs violent crown: we are surrounded by these witnesses as by clouds of fragrant incense. In this age we would be counted in this communion of all the saints; keep us always in their good and blessed company. In their midst we make every prayer through Christ who is our Lord for ever and ever.
Amen.
