Rosemary's Blessing:                                  

When the decorations of Christmas have been packed away
then the work of Christmas begins:

 Lord, help us …

to find the lost,
to heal those broken in spirit,
to feed the hungry,
to release the oppressed,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among all peoples,
and to make a little music with the heart…

 Adapted from Work of Christmas Begins by Howard Thurman

    Come, O Dancing God,

    Spirit of Life and Love,

    of Beauty and Diversity,

    stir up my soul,
