Rosemary's Blessing:
Loving God,
As I journey into the unknown territory of a new year…
As I hurt in the process of loving those I dislike or find difficult…
As I learn to accept my strengths, weaknesses and mistakes…
As I keep searching for the truth in times of confusion, doubt and conflict…
As I try to be a voice for the voiceless and powerless…
As I strive to live and witness your inclusive love, compassion, forgiveness, justice and peace…
As I do the work of the Christmas message and make Christ visible to others…
Walk closely with me, my God.

Rosemary's Blessing:
O God, we thank you for the fact that you have inspired men and women in all nations and in all cultures. We call you different names: some call you Allah; some call you Elohim; some call you Jehovah; some call you Brahma; some call you the Unmoved Mover. But we know that these are all names for one and the same God. Grant that we will follow you and become so committed to your way and your kingdom that we will be able to establish in our lives and in this world a brother and sisterhood, that we will be able to establish here a kingdom of understanding, where men and women will live together as brothers and sisters and respect the dignity and worth of every human being. In the name and spirit of Jesus. Amen.

Rosemary's Blessing:
We are called to be co-partners and co-workers in the unfolding of God’s vision. Our faith brings us to a deep truth: we are made in the image and likeness of a God who is unconditional and unfathomable love. Jesus lives and teaches this idea of God that surpasses all other concepts of God. Our God is intimately close to us and in love with us. We abide in God.
