Rosemary's Blessing

Love changes everything and everyone, and when we love, “love never lets us be the same.” With every thought and act of love we change ourselves and others.

As we learn from Jesus, love is a people thing. It’s personal, individual and unique. No one can do the work of love for me. There’s no app, website or program. We just have to do it. With each loving thought, word and deed, we bring about the Realm of God right here and right now. Sometimes it’s sweet and patient; sometimes it takes us out of our comfort zone, takes courage and can be exhausting.

From  A Lenten Reflection by Sister Jean Amore, CSJ

    Dearest Community Members,

    Rosemary, even Aviana, & I have really, really so missed all of you.   We hope and pray that you are all healthy and safe.

    Should you need anything from the stores and cannot or feel hesitant about going out, please let me & Rosemary know.  People from the community have already volunteered to shop for any of you.  

     

    We will keep you posted about next Sunday.   Live stream the celebration (Mike)?  Let John present his Matthew studies?

     

    Thanks to all you members of the board who unanimously voted to take this Sunday off, even though I was looking for a loop hole.

    Rosemary's Blessing: 

    Dear Lord, please give me

    A few friends who understand me and remain my friends;

    A work to do which has real value,
    without which the world would be the poorer;

    A mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed; 

    A sense of humor;

    Time for quiet, silent meditation;   

    The patience to wait for the coming of these things, Amen.

    Lord

    Enlighten what’s dark in me,

    Strengthen what’s weak in me,

    Mend what’s broken in me,

    Bind what’s bruised in me,

    Heal what’s sick in me,

    And lastly,

    Revive whatever peace and love

    Has died in me.

    Amen.
