Trinity Sunday, May 26, 2024

Deuteronomy 4:  This is why you must now know, and fix in your heart, that the LORD is God in the heavens above and on earth below,  and that there is no other.

Romans 8:  For those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.  For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a Spirit of adoption, through whom we cry, "Abba, Father!"

Matthew 28: And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.

Rosemary's Blessing:
 

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

    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.

  • 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time, August 16, 2020–Special info on this Sunday’s Celebration

     

     

    A note from John Cade:

    In the summer of 1956, when still in the seminary, I spent a week at the Trappist monastery north of Atlanta, outside Conyers, Georgia.  I got to experience how Trappist monks end every single day, expressing their devotion to Mary, Jesus’ mother—a hundred men standing together and chanting in Latin, Salve Regina, Hail Holy Queen.  August 15th is one of the days we have traditionally honored Mary.  I will chant this hymn in her honor at the end of Sunday Mass.

     

    SALVE REGINA.                                                   HAIL HOLY QUEEN.                                           

    Salve Regina, mater misericordiae:  vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve.

    Hail holy queen, mother of mercy; Our life, our sweetness and our hope.

     

    Ad te clamamus, exsules, filii Hevae.  Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.

     To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve.  To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.

     

    Eia ergo, Advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.

    Turn then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us;

     

    Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium, ostende.

    And after this exile, show us the blessed fruit of you womb, Jesus.

     

    O Clemens.   O pia.      O dulcis Virgo Maria.

    O clement,   O loving,   O sweet Virgin Mary.
