Rosemary’s Blessing:

May God grant you the strength and faith to

Count your blessings, not your crosses;

Count your gains not your losses.

Count your joys not your woes;

Count your friends not your foes.

Count your health not your wealth;

And love your neighbor as much as yourself.

An Irish Blessing

    A Special Note from Cathy Bambanek 

    My mom passed away Friday from congestive heart failure.  

    Visitation is at 7:00PM-8 Tuesday, with a rosary at 8, more visitation until 9.  This is at Ted Dickey West on the George Bush Highway.

    A funeral mass will be said at 10:30  Wednesday at St. Marks on 15th Street.  There will be a luncheon afterwards at the church and all are welcome to attend.  Then the cemetary at 1:30.  

    I would love to have you come to any or all of them.

    If you would like to bring something to the house, we need beer, wine, and appetizers to serve to relatives coming from out of town.  They will only be here Tues and Wed, so we do not need a lot of food.

    My address is 2505 heather hill lane.

    Thanks to all of you for being great friends.  Please pray for my family at this stressful time.

    John 11:   And when he had said this, He cried out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”  The dead man came out, tied hand and foot with burial bands, and his face was wrapped in a cloth.

    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.

    Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

     Christ has no body now on earth but yours,

         no hands but yours,

         no feet but yours,

    Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s

         compassion is to look out to the world,

    Yours are the feet with which Christ is to

         go about doing good,

    Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to  

         bless all people now.

    From a prayer by Teresa of Avila (1515–1582)
