"And all shall be well and                                               

 All manner of thing shall be well ‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍

When the tongues of flames are in-folded
 Into the crowned knot of fire

 And the fire and the rose are one."

T.S. Eliot

Rosemary's Blessing:  

O Lord, you mark the journey of life with change. Once again we witness your creation moving from one season to the other. Change is your instrument of growth that brings us to a deeper relationship with you. May your Word be the lantern that guides the roads of change in our lives. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
