Rosemary’s Blessing

 We are the instruments of God’s gentle, motherly embrace. 

Let us make of ourselves a sanctuary

where God’s motherly love can embrace at least one person

who is lost, lonely or forgotten in our world

amid their struggles and despair. 

Come Lord Jesus, work through me.

 Taken from a  prayer by Benedictine Sr. Diana Seago

    Rosemary's Blessing of The Week,  

    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
