	The Church’s Prayer for the Dead
		The grain and fruit brought to the commemoration of the dead signifies that the dead will truly rise again from the grave, for both grain which is sown in the earth and the fruit which is laid on the earth, decays first, and afterwards brings forth abundant ripe, whole fruit.
		Furthermore, one day of the week is set aside for prayers for the dead -Saturday, on which it is customary to have a service for the dead, unless it coincides with a feast, if such is to be served on that day.
		On the ninth day, the Holy Church offers prayers and the Bloodless Sacrifice for the departed, that his soul be accounted worthy to be numbered among the choirs of the saints through the prayers and intercession of the nine ranks of angels.

	Moment of silence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Similar to flying a flag at half-mast, a moment of silence is often a gesture of respect, particularly in mourning for those who have recently died or as part of a commemoration ceremony of a tragic historical event.
		A moment of silence is the expression for a period of silent contemplation, prayer, reflection, or meditation.
		During the observance of such quiet moments in public schools, Buddhist students could meditate, students adhering to religious beliefs such as Christianity, Islam, and Judaism would be allotted time for prayer, and atheist students could reflect on the upcoming day.

		Ever since this event, and until the deacon was ordained as a priest, as soon as the "Commemoration of Saints" prayer in the Liturgy starts, he knelt down on his knees, remembering what the priest had seen and the priest’s prayer that the Lord opened his eyes to see the same.
		The priest waved to the deacon standing next to him saying, "Please, make room, as the sanctuary is overcrowded, my son and I haven’t completed the Commemoration, yet!" The deacon was surprised as he looked around and found nobody but him!
		The deacon got amazed and knelt down, saying, "Indeed, O Lord, the sanctuary is crowded with victorious saints, who surround You while You are on the Altar Their souls are gathered around Your Throne Who am I to stand here in this holy place!!!"

		THE ORIGIN OF THE BREVIARY THE LITURGY, or official public worship of the Church, comprises the holy sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacraments and Sacramentals, and the canonical hours, or official daily prayer of the Church.
		Associated with the annual cycle of the liturgical commemoration of the mysteries of Jesus Christ is the yearly cycle of the feasts of His Saints.
		THE EXCELLENCE OF THE BREVIARY The chief claim for the pre-eminence of the Canonical Hours over all other forms of prayer is that the Breviary contains the official, liturgical prayer of the Church.

	Yom Ha-Zikaron - Memorial Day
		Outside of Israel, Yom Ha-Zikaron is not widely observed, except perhaps for a short commemoration that is held prior to evening observances of Yom Ha-Atzmaut.
		There is a special yizkor (rememberance) prayer and "El Maleh Rachamim" memorial prayer for members of the Israeli Defense Forces who died in the line of duty, which is read at many of the Yom Ha-Zikaron ceremonies.
		Perhaps because much of the Israeli population has relatives or close friends who have died defending Israel, Yom Ha-Zikaron is widely observed throughout all sectors of Israel, with the exception of most Arabs (Druze and Beduoin, many of whom have served in the Israeli military, being a notable exception) and non-Zionist haredi Jews.
