Rosemary’s Blessing:

Loving God,

Enable us to grow in the Benedictine spirit

In ways that make us

Compassionate co-creators of a world in process,

Creative keepers of the human community,

Loving listeners to the heartbeat of the world,

Caring sisters and brothers to its wounded

And bringers of peace to a world in distress.

 

Taken from The Prayer for Those Who Dwell in the Monastery of the Heart by Joan Chittister

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

    Lord, help us

    to release the oppressed,
    to rebuild the nations,
    to bring peace among all peoples,
    and to make a little music with the heart…

    Breathe of Summer

    Creator God
    who breathed this world into being,
    who is discernible within
    the harmony of nature,
    the perfection of a butterfly’s wing,
    the grandeur of a mountain range,
    the soaring eagle and humming bird,
    thank you for this world
    which you have created.
    Thank you for summer sun,
    which reminds us
    that your creative breath
    is still alive and active.
    Thank you for the warmth of your love,
    sustaining this world,

    Your garden
