Rosemary’s Blessing:

During this Lenten season, may we …

• Fast from criticism, and feast on praise.
• Fast from self-pity, and feast on joy.
• Fast from ill-temper, and feast on peace.
• Fast from selfishness, and feast on service.
• Fast from fear, and feast on faith.

Taken from Bishop Arthur Lichtenberger’s words of Lenten advice.

Lily reading Isaiah 43.

Rosemary's Blessing:   

Revel in a friendly Smile

Grasp the offered Hand, warm and strong

And with your best Love be reconciled.

Watch the Clouds march across the Sky

As You come from your daily Labor

Your Heart open for Surprise.

And may the God of Surprises

Who filled the World with Wonder

Bless you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
