    Acts of the Apostles 9The church throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria was at peace.  It was being built up and walked in the fear of the Lord, and with the consolation of the Holy Spirit it grew in numbers.

    1 John 3:  And his commandment is this: we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another just as he commanded us.

    John 15:  I am the vine, you are the branches.  Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    Grant us, Lord God,

    a vision of your world as your

    love would have it: 

    a world where the weak are protected,

    and none go hungry or poor; 

    a world where the riches of creation are

    shared, and everyone can enjoy them; 

    a world where different races and cultures

    live in harmony and mutual respect; 

    a world where peace is built with justice,

    and justice is guided by love.

    Give us the inspiration and courage to

    build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

    Amen.

    And concern for the feelings of others

     

    May you talk to God

    This summer

    And every day and

    In every situation

     

    Talking with God means…

    Praying words of praise

    For the beauty of creation

    Saying prayers of thanks

    For friends and good times,

    Asking God's help

    In all your decisions

    Expressing sorrow

    When you have failed

     

    May you talk with God

    Every day. Amen.
