Rosemary's Blessing:

 

Father,

Please wrap your loving arms around the children of the world

who have special needs.

We pray that you give special blessings to their caregivers

and all who love them.

Please teach us to be kind, patient and understanding.

Help us to really see the person and not just the disability.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    The Christmas Story will always be the story of Emmanuel, of God-with-us, always and everywhere, in the everyday, in the chaos, in the flight into exile, in the love between a man and a woman and in the birth of a child. It is the story of God who heals, empowers and loves us just as we are – in our greatness and our foolishness. As we anticipate the joy, the love and the peace that are God's Christmas gifts to us, let us receive them with gratitude and be sure to unfold them and share them especially where they need to be more visible.

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    Be the One

    Jesus, thank you for loving me so much.
    Help me to love others as you do.
    When someone is lonely, help me to be the one to be kind.
    When others are left out, help me to be the one to include them.
    When someone is sad, help me be the one to bring joy.
    Show me your face in every person I meet.
    Let me be the one to console You and my neighbor,
    with kindness, a smile, prayers and love.
    Give me courage to “be the one”
    who builds up the body of Christ today. Amen.
