    Rosemary's Blessing:   

    Dear Lord, please give me

     A few friends who understand me and remain my friends;

    A work to do which has real value,
         without which the world would be the poorer;

    A mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed; 

    A sense of humor;

    Time for quiet, silent meditation;  

    The patience to wait for the coming of these things,

    Amen.

    Outreach:     $ 360.00

     We donated this week: 

    1. $700 for Karina in Mexico.  This includes donations targeted especially for Karina in Cuernavaca, Mexico.  I will take this to her Jan. 28, when I visit Mexico to see how she is doing after the death of her mother recently.  She had panicked a bit, especially that she might get thrown out of her little garage.  She is the woman who had polio as a young girl and is crippled.  We have supported the two of them for over 20 years.

     Philippians 2:  Because of this, God greatly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, …

    Rosemary's Blessing

    May you treasure wisely this jeweled, gilded time

    And cherish each day as an extra grace

    Whose heedless loss would be a tragic crime.

    In today’s tasks may you find God’s tender face

    And may the Lord of the Dance bless you

    As He invites you to the dance of the hollowed present.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

    Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

    Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

    Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

    You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.
