Rosemary's Blessing: 

Support us, Lord, all the day long, until the shadows lengthen, and the evening comes,  the busy world is hushed, the fever of life is over, and our work done;                            Then Lord, in your mercy, give us safe lodging, a holy rest and peace at the last.

In the raging storm and in the quiet breeze

In the loving whisper and in the angry cry

And may the God of invitations, surprises and mysteries

Bless you and guide you always.

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

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.

 

Sister Jean Amore, CSJ, Principal, Sacred Heart Academy, Hempstead, N.Y.
