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. 
• Take time, slow down, be still, be awake to the Divine Mystery that looks so common and so ordinary yet is wondrously present.
