Rosemary's Blessing

Lord of all,

Bless our families.

Be they formed by blood or by circumstance,

Make them holy.

 

May we find you

In our relationships.

In our marriages, in our families, in our households, in our communities, in our global humanity.

 

May we look across all that divides us

And see family, and embrace as a family does, and love as a family ought to.

 

For where two or three gather in your name. There are you.

Amen.

 

A Family Blessing from CRS (Catholic Relief Services)

    Rosemary's Blessing:   

    May you treasure wisely this jeweled, gilded time

    And cherish each day as an extra grace

    Whose heedless loss would be a tragic crime

    In today’s tasks may you find God’s tender face

    And may the Lord of the Dance bless you

    As He invites you to the dance of the hollowed present.

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    Loving God,

    You who dwell in our hearts,

    make for us a cave there

    in which to hear your voice more distinctly,

    feel your care more tenderly,

    understand your will more clearly,

    and come to know your presence

    at every moment of our lives

    with new clarity and new courage,

    with new faith and new urgency.
