 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

Kerry reading from The Great Prophet Isaiah (Isaiah III this selection).
