Rosemary's Blessing: 

May we shine like lights in the world

Never hiding the brightness under a basket

But rather spreading the glow of God’s love

To all we come in contact with.

Rosemary's Blessing:     May you …

• Take time to be aware that in the very midst of our busy preparations for the celebration of Christ's birth in ancient Bethlehem, Christ is reborn in the Bethlehems of our homes and daily lives.

Rosemary's Blessing:          

May the God of the dawn awaken you

May the God of sunrise stir you up

May the God of morning bless your work

May the God of noon renew your strength

May the God of dusk soothe your soul

May the God of night bring you rest.
