Rosemary's Blessing:

 

Let us walk softly on the earth

With all living beings, great and small,

Remembering as we go,

That one God, kind and wise, created all.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

     

    O God, we thank you for the fact that you have inspired men and women in all nations and in all cultures. We call you different names: some call you Allah; some call you Elohim; some call you Jehovah; some call you Brahma; some call you the Unmoved Mover.  But we know that these are all names for one and the same God.

    Grant that we will follow you and become so committed to your way and your kingdom that we will be able to establish in our lives and in this world a brother and sisterhood, that we will be able to establish here a kingdom of understanding, where men and women will live together as brothers and sisters and respect the dignity and worth of every human being.

    In the name and spirit of Jesus. Amen.

  • Reminder for the 3rd Sunday of Advent, December 15, 2024

    Zephaniah 3:  Jerusalem will be told: "Don't be afraid. Dear Zion, don't despair. Your God is present among you, a strong Warrior there to save you.

    Philippians 4:  Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

    Luke 3:  But John intervened: "I'm baptizing you here in the river. The main character in this drama, to whom I'm a mere stagehand, will ignite the kingdom life, a fire, the Holy Spirit within you, changing you from the inside out.

    New Years Prayer  by Charlotte Anselmo

     

    Thank you Lord for giving me

    The brand new year ahead

    Help me live the way I should

    As each new day I tread.

     

    Give me gentle wisdom

    That I might help a friend

    Give me strength and courage

    So a shoulder I may lend.

     

    The year ahead is empty

    Help me fill it with good things

    Each new day filled with joy

    And the happiness it brings.

     

    Please give the leaders of our world

    A courage born of peace

    That they might lead us gently

    And all the fighting cease.

     

    Please give to all upon this earth

    A heart that’s filled with love

    A gentle happy way to live

    With your blessings from above.
