Rosemary's Blessing:  

 May the Lord grant you              

           A tolerance for those who don’t agree with you,

           A refusal to judge others,

           A willingness to forgive,

           A calm and hopeful spirit in the midst of anxieties,

           And a holy anger for injustice in the world.

  From Seven Sacred Pauses by Macrina Wiederkehr

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
