Rosemary’s Blessing: 

May God grant you

Blue skies with gentle breezes,

Green trees to climb and green grass to walk upon,

Lots of love and family and friends,

And the freedom to be as you are.

Buddy, don't leave us yet and go outside.  We are almost finished.  Moreover, it is cold and rainy out there.

 
Rosemary's Blessing: 

Let us pray to our God,

To the God of Mary and Joseph,

To the God of Abraham and Sarah.

May our actions bear witness to the suffering of others.

May our hands never harm a living being.

May our steps stay on the journey of justice.

May our tongue speak to those who are poor

Without fear of the powerful.

May our prayers rise with patient discontent

Until no child is hungry.
