Rosemary's Blessing: 

Father,

We thank you for our political freedom. 

Help us never to take it for granted and to strive that freedom

be experienced by everyone in our land, 

especially the poor and the oppressed  and eventually  by all mankind.

 Rosemary’s Blessing: 

Blessing For All Souls Day

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 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.
