Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week:  

May the sun shine bright on your joyous days

And the rain refresh you through peaceful nights

May summer show God’s wondrous ways

And prepare you for heaven’s great delights.

And till we meet there

May the God of summertime

Hold you in the palm of her hand.
