Blessed are you, Father of Life, source of goodness and peace, in whom all creation has its origin and by whom every person is loved.
In Father Bill Atkinson your mercy and compassion were made manifest as he brought solace to the suffering and hope to the needy.
By carrying the cross of life faithfully he proclaimed confidence in your love and conformity to your will, and so drew others to you and to the generous gift of your grace.
Hear our prayers which we offer through his intercession so that as your work continues to unfold among us it may bring honor to you, comfort to your people, and, according to your will, glory to your servant. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
