When people come to a funeral, it may be the first time that they have entered a church or chapel for years. These simple cards with a profound Christian message are designed to be taken away by visitors. Inexpensive enough to place on seats or in pews, they carry the comforting words of the gospel.
The cards contain a message of sympathy and support, followed by the verses
'God is our refuge and strength: a very present help in trouble' (Psalm 46:1)
'Jesus said: Come to me all you that are weary and carrying burdens, and I will give you rest.' (Matthew 11:28)
These are followed by a short prayer.
