Rosemary's Blessing: 

Here is the quirky prayer said to be recited each day by Pope Francis and written by St. Thomas Moore reminding us to live joyfully.  It is said Thomas Moore was known for his humor and was also a man not appreciated during his lifetime.

Prayer to live Joyfully:

Grant me, O Lord good digestion and also something to digest.

Grant me,O Lord a healthy body, and the necessary good humor to maintain it.

Grant me a simple soul that knows no boredom, grumblings, sighs or laments.

Grant me, O Lord, a sense of humor.

Allow me grace to be able to take a joke–to discover in life a bit of Joy and to be able to share it with others.

Amen

 Denni reading the prophet Micah.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

God of love, show us our place in this world
as channels of your love
for all the creatures of this earth,
for not one of them is forgotten in your sight.
Enlighten those who possess power and money
that they may avoid the sin of indifference,
that they may love the common good, advance the weak,
and care for this world in which we live.
The poor and the earth are crying out.
O Lord, seize us with our power and light,
help us to protect all life,
to prepare for a better future,
for the coming of your Kingdom
of justice, peace, love and beauty.
Praise be to you!
Amen.

Pope Francis – It is part of his important encyclical on saving the sacred Earth, Laudato Sí.
