Rosemary's Blessing:   

We end this meal with grace

For the joy and nourishment of food,

The slowed time away from the world

To come into presence with each other

We pray the wise spirit who keeps us

To change the structures that make others hunger

And that after such grace we might go forth

And impart dignity wherever we partake.

    Isaiah 55:  Seek the LORD while he may be found, call him while he is near.
    Philippians 1:  Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.  For to me life is Christ, and death is gain.
    Matthew 20:  ‘My friend, I am not cheating you. Did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? Take what is yours and go.  What if I wish to give this last one the same as you?  Or am I not free to do as I wish with my own money?  Are you envious because I am generous?’  Thus, the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

    May those that love us, love us. And those that don’t love us,
    May God turn their hearts.  And if He doesn’t turn their hearts,
    May He turn their ankles, so we will know them by their limping.
