Rosemary's Blessing:  

Oh, Heavenly Father,

We thank Thee for food and remember the hungry.

We thank Thee for health and remember the sick.

We thank Thee for friends and remember the friendless.

We thank Thee for freedom and remember the enslaved.

May these remembrances stir us to service,

That Thy gifts to us may be used for others.

Amen.

The original Dear Abby

Rosemary's Blessing:     

 May you hear the voice of God

In the raging storm and in the quiet breeze

In the loving whisper and in the angry cry

And may the God of invitations, surprises and mysteries

Bless you and guide you always.
