Rosemary's Blessing: Oh, Lord,

I am one worn out tired Branch,

And I need the newness of the Vine of You

To start the Hope-Life running through the Streams of Me again.

Lord, be my Vine and I’ll be your Branch.

Rosemary's Blessing:          

God,

Bless anyone who has asked me to pray for them

    and anyone that I have promised to pray for.

Bless anyone that I cannot get along with

    And anyone that cannot get along with me.

Bless the person who has hurt me deeply

    and anyone that I have hurt

Bless the person that I cannot forgive

    and anyone that cannot forgive me.

Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today

    and to treat all I meet today with dignity

Harper and her buddy say, "Have a good week, see you next Sunday."

Jeremiah 20:  But the LORD is with me, like a mighty champion: my persecutors will stumble, they will not triumph. In their failure they will be put to utter shame, to lasting, unforgettable confusion.
Romans 5:  But the gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, how much more did the grace of God and the gracious gift of the one man Jesus Christ overflow for the many.
Matthew 10:  Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s knowledge. Even all the hairs of your head are counted. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Loving God, through the gift of our fathers,
you reveal your wisdom, love and care.

Continue to bless and guide these holy men
you have given to us in our lives.

Support them in their call
to lead holy lives of faithfulness, respect and integrity.

May their witness of faith and love
shine from them and on their children and families
giving hope and encouragement to all.

Bless them for all the ways they lift their children to achieve their dreams.
Bless them for their sacrifice, their forgiveness and their guidance.

Bless grandfathers, uncles, brothers, cousins, teachers and coaches
who have shown us love and support.

For those fathers who have lost a child or spouse,
give them your loving touch of healing
consoling them with your gentle care.

For those fathers who have gone before us,
bring them to your eternal banquet of joy and peace;
bring them the fullness of union with you
and communion with us as we remember their love for us.
Amen.
