Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week:  

May the sun shine bright on your joyous days

And the rain refresh you through peaceful nights

May summer show God’s wondrous ways

And prepare you for heaven’s great delights.

And till we meet there

May the God of summertime

Hold you in the palm of her hand.

 Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

When the decorations of Christmas have been packed away 
then the work of Christmas begins:

Lord, help us

to find the lost,
to heal those broken in spirit,
to feed the hungry,
to release the oppressed,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among all peoples,
and to make a little music with the heart…

Adapted from Work of Christmas Begins by Howard Thurman

From Mary and Genevieve, "Have a great week, Folks, peace."

Hello Everyone.  I am happy to report that John had his surgery on Friday.  Everything went well and he is a happy camper.  He walked down the hall tonight with his walker and NO pain.  He comes home tomorrow.  

Special thanks to Mike Carrell  who spent the day in the hospital with John waiting for the surgery.

 

 

 

Rosemary's Blessing

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others.

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.

Saint Terese of Liseaux
