22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 3, 2023

Jeremiah 20:  I say to myself, I will not mention him, I will speak in his name no more. But then it becomes like fire burning in my heart, imprisoned in my bones; …

Romans 12: … that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and  perfect.

Matthew 16:  For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

    Gaze at the beauty of earth’s greenings.
    Now, think.

    All nature is at the disposal of humankind.
    We are to work with it.
    For without we cannot survive.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    May you find truth in the week’s smallest grace

    And hope in the week’s heaviest cross

    May you learn to walk a little bit slow

    And to grow each day in hope and trust

    And may the God of new beginnings

    Grant you a week of love and peace.

  • Reminder for the 3rd Sunday in Lent, March 23, 2025

    Exodus 3:  God replied, “I am who am.”  Then he added, “This is what you shall tell the Israelites: I AM sent me to you.”

    1 Corinthians 10:  These things happened as examples for us, so that we might not desire evil things, as they did.

    Luke 13:  ‘Sir, leave it for this year also, and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the future.  If not you can cut it down.’”

    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.
