All Saints Day, November 2, 2025

Revelation 7:  These are those who come from the great tribulation.  And they’ve washed their robes, scrubbed them clean in the blood of the Lamb.  That’s why they’re standing before God’s Throne.
1 John 3:  For this is the original message we heard: We should love each other.  Let’s not just talk about love.  Let’s practice real love.
 Matthew 5:  When Jesus saw his ministry drawing huge crowds, he climbed a hillside.  Those who were apprenticed to him, the committed ones, climbed with him.  Arriving at a quiet place, he sat down and taught his climbing companions.

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.

Rabbi Andrew M. Paley, senior rabbi with Temple Shalom, Dallas.  He emailed this letter to his congregation in 2018 after a gunman shot members of the Tree of Life Synagogue.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    May you treasure wisely this jeweled, gilded time

    And cherish each day as an extra grace

    Whose heedless loss would be a tragic crime.

    In today’s tasks may you find God’s tender face

    And may the Lord of the Dance bless you

    As He invites you to the dance of the hollowed present.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Loving Father,

    often we forget your gifts to us,

    letting them pass unnoticed through each day.

    Show us how to look again, to see through your eyes

    and give freely in response to what we see.

    Amen
