Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week

 May you use the gifts that you have received, and

    pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content with yourself just the way you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow

    your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.

From a prayer by St. Terese of Liseaux

 

Rosemary doing her Blessing of The Week.

 

From Ken &  Cindy Cramer:  (blame them!) 

Some say the beer commercials are the best, others favor auto or insurance commercials.  Don't make up your mind until you watch this one!

Loving God,

Where all may enter in,
