The only thing you can do is talk to them and be there for them. Treat each person with respect and not pity, make them feel like they matter and that the world isn't such a horrible place. Convince them to want to live by being the light in their darkness. I know you can do it ^_^ and you never know you may make them better by just being there.

It is sad you have 'a lot' of friends who try to commit suicide. What is the reason for this? Is bullying or drugs or abuse at home.
They need professional advice if it is any of these things.
You can't take the world and all it's worries on your shoulders. You can only try to be there and think of positive ways to help them and if its professional advice try to get them to go for it.
Good luck. This question is oh so sad.

Its hard, really, having someone you care about being suicidal. the best thing is to find out the core reason as to why they are suicidal, and show them that you care. It's worked every time with my friends. some of them are still a little unstable (OK, so some are still really unstable) but they are better. Also, make sure that their parents know and are trying to do something about it (anti-depressants for instance(yes, i know they suck)) good luck.

Just tell them that the pain of commiting sucide is terrible compared to what they're going through right now. God never accepts the people who commit sucide and throws them in fire of hell to burn for the years to come.
