Rosemary’s Blessing:

Make me mindful this day of the Signs of Love all around me:
Of good words spoken, of gentle touch extended,
Of important things that spring from appreciation, and true passion,
Of deeds born of generosity and real understanding.
Grant me the power this day to live with thoughtful intention in my speech, choices, and actions,
So that I may build the habit of living gracefully, with love for the people and experiences that shape my life,
Which is Your Gift of Love to me each day.
Ken Philipps

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

… May God bless you with enough foolishness

in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.

go about doing good,
Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to
bless all people now.
