Loving God , I pray that you will comfort me in my suffering, lend skill to the hands of my healers, and bless the means used for my cure. Give me such confidence in the power of your grace, that even when I am afraid, I may put my whole trust in you; through our Savior Jesus Christ.

A memorial service is a place to show respect for the deceased. That said, jeans are not appropriate to wear to this event and may even be seen as disrespectful to the family. The most common answer is that jeans aren't considered appropriate funeral etiquette unless requested by the family.
However, dark, unembellished jeans paired with a shirt, tie, and blazer for men or a blouse and a blazer for women can be appropriate for a casual service. You can wear a shirt or dress with a pattern , just make sure it is subdued. Don't go too casual. Avoid wearing casual clothes like t-shirts and jeans.

What do you do at a prayer vigil? Why is 40 days after death? How long does a Catholic vigil last? How do you start a vigil? Should I bring flowers to a vigil? What is the vigil of the deceased?
The Vigil for the Deceased normally occurs at the Funeral Home. At the request of the family, Holy Family Catholic Church will provide a priest or deacon to preside at the Vigil for the deceased. This is the principal prayer that is celebrated usually the night before the Funeral Mass.
The Vigil is also the appropriate time for any eulogies to take place rather than at the Funeral Mass. Although the COVID pandemic has impacted liturgical celebrations this year, it has not stopped the Church traditions and celebrations that bring us closer to the arrival of our Savior.
This year, Vigil Masses may be celebrated as early as 1 p. This will allow the faithful to participate and prepare in a deeper way for the moment we have all been waiting for during Advent: the birth of Jesus. For Christmas Mass times, please contact your local parish.
