Rosemary's Blessing: 

Lord, support us all the day long, until the shadows lengthen,
and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed,
and the fever of life is over, and our work is done.  

Then in your mercy, grant us a safe lodging, and a holy rest, and peace at the last.

Rosemary's Blessing: 

May we pray during this graced season of  Lent when we are called to deepen our  awareness of our constant connectedness with God, with all people and with all that exists.

Acknowledging the pain and hurt that comes when we act as if we are disconnected, let us begin this Lenten journey willing to heal, to mend and to be God’s human expression  of love, forgiveness and justice as Jesus taught and modeled for us.

Rosemary’s Blessing

God,

Bless anyone who has asked me to pray for them

    and anyone that I have promised to pray for.

Bless anyone that I cannot get along with

    and anyone that cannot get along with me.

Bless the person who has hurt me deeply

    and anyone that I have hurt

Bless the person that I cannot forgive

    and anyone that cannot forgive me.

Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today

    and to treat all I meet today with dignity
