Rosemary's Blessing: 

Gracious God, slow my pace and soften my heart this Christmas,

Keep me from rushing through the season, but missing the Way …

From decorating the tree, but missing the Light …

From wrapping the gifts, but missing the Gift.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

 

Humankind, full of all creative possibilities,

is God’s work.

Humankind alone is called to assist God.

Humankind is called to co-create.

With nature’s help,

humankind can set into creation all that is necessary and life-sustaining.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week    

 May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.

May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
The kindness you spread keep returning to you.

May the friendships you make be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.

And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

Grace E. Easley

For love and friends,

For everything Thy goodness sends.

Father in heaven

We thank thee.
