    Rosemary's Blessing of the Week

    Grant us, Lord God,

     

    a vision of your world as your

    love would have it: 

    a world where the weak are protected,

    and none go hungry or poor; 

    a world where the riches of creation are

    shared, and everyone can enjoy them; 

    a world where different races and cultures

    live in harmony and mutual respect; 

    a world where peace is built with justice,

    and justice is guided by love.

    Give us the inspiration and courage to

    build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

     

    Amen.

     Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

     Another fresh new year is here …
         Another year to live!
    To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
         To love and laugh and give!

    This bright new year is given me
         To live each day with zest …
    To daily grow and try to be
         My highest and my best!

    I have the opportunity
         Once more to right some wrongs,
    To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
         And sing more joyful songs!

    Yours are the feet with which Christ is to
    go about doing good,
    Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to
    bless all people now.
