Rosemary's Blessing:  

Gracious God inspire us with the hope in the gift of shalom, the gift of wholeness and the promise of your presence.

Give wisdom to seek nonviolence as an answer to the violence of our lives and world.

Give us courage to seek wholeness in a fractured and divided world, to find reconciliation rather than revenge, to abandon the instruments of violence and death and entrust our lives, our homes and our families to you.

May your presence fill us and others with the thirst for unity, wholeness, and the desire to see all people valued as created in your image.

May we and others receive your shalom, that we might be faithful instruments of your love.

Blessed be your name forever,

Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing:  

    May an abundance of gratitude burst forth in our minds and hearts as we remember all the blessings in our life.
     

    May we slow our hurried pace these days so we can be aware of, and enjoy, what we can too easily take for granted.
     

    May we always be open, willing and ready to share our blessings with others and never forget the God who loves us lavishly and unconditionally.
     

    And  may we remember that our thanksgiving is incomplete until we pay it forward by doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.
     

    Amen.
