Rosemary's Blessing:  As we prepre to celebrate Thanksgiving, Casey, Rob, and The Four Angels send this Blessing to the Community.

I want to thank you and everyone in your ministry from the bottom of my heart.  The way you were all there for us is such a blessing.  We made many wonderful friends that will always be in our hearts.  We could not have taken care of these four beautiful angels without you all.  The time, food, and prayers given have touched us so much.

These children are such miracles and the wonderful people they have brought into our lives are phenominal.

We love you!  Bless You All!

Rosemary's Blessing: 

Slow me down, Lord; I am going too fast,

I can’t see my brother as he goes past;

I miss a lot of good things day by day,

I don’t know blessings when they come my way.

 

Slow me down, Lord so I can see

More of the things that are good for me;

A little less of me, a mile more of you,

Let Heavenly atmosphere trickle thru,

 

Let me help a brother when the going’s rough,

When folks work together, things aren’t so tough;

Slow me down, Lord; so that I can talk

With more of your angels … slow me down to a walk.

Rosemary's Blessing: 

As we begin the new year of 2011,

May our relationship with God continue to grow, 

May our days be filled with blessings of all sorts,

May those we love be near us in spirit if not in person,

May we be forever grateful for all we have,

And may we always be alert for opportunities

to share our gifts and blessings with others.

Rosemary’s Blessing

… May God bless you with enough foolishness
to believe that you can make a difference
in this world & in your neighborhood,
so that you will courageously try
what you don't think you can do, but,
in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.

Rosemary’s Blessing      

Loving Father,

often we forget your gifts to us,

letting them pass unnoticed through each day.

Show us how to look again, to see through your eyes

and give freely in response to what we see.

Amen
