Isaiah 6: …for my house shall be called a house of prayer for  all peoples.

Romans 11: For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.

Matthew 15:  Then Jesus said to her in reply, "O woman, great is your faith!  Let it be done for you as you wish."

Wisdom 1: For God formed man to be imperishable; the image of his own nature he made him.

2 Corinthians 8:  You are familiar with the generosity of our Master, Jesus Christ. Rich as he was, he gave it all away for us – in one stroke he became poor and we became rich.

Mark 5:   He clasped the girl's hand and said, "Talitha koum," which means, "Little girl, get up."   At that, she was up and walking around! This girl was twelve years of age. They, of course, were all beside themselves with joy.

 

 

 

 

Joshua 5:  Today I have removed the reproach of Egypt from you.

2 Corinthians 5:   Brothers and sisters: Whoever is in Christ is a new creation: the old things have passed away: behold, new things have come.

Luke 13:  But now we must celebrate and rejoice, because your brother was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.

The old streets of Honfleur and someone we know

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

Unknown

Welcome, also, to the Rectory for wine & cheese and a ride through Highland Park to see the best lights. 

By the way, we are dropping the idea of riding bikes through Highland Park to look at the Christmas lights.  It is just too cold.  Plus, each bike would need lights on front and back, a little expensive.
