Isaiah 66:   They shall bring all your brothers and sisters from all the nations as an offering to the Lord …

Hebrews 12:  So strengthen your drooping hands and your weak knees.  Make straight paths for your feet, that what is lame may not be disjointed but healed.

Luke 13:  For behold, some are last who will be first, and some are first who will be last.

    In Flanders fields the poppies blow 

    Between the crosses, row on row,

    That mark our place: and in the sky

    The larks still bravely singing fly

    Scarce heard amid the guns below.

     

    We are the dead: Short days ago,

    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

    Loved and were loved: and now we lie

    In Flanders fields!

     

    Take up our quarrel with the foe!

    To you from falling hands we throw

    The torch, Be yours to bear it high!

    If ye break faith with us who die

    We shall not sleep tho’ poppies blow

    In Flanders Field.

     

    In Flanders Fields  By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

    Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915 during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium

    “Father and Mother of all:

    We give thanks for food and remember the hungry,

    We give thanks for health and remember the sick,

    We give thanks for friends and remember the friendless,

    We give thanks for freedom and remember the enslaved.

    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.
