Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

Looking behind I am filled with gratitude.

Looking forward I am filled with vision.

Looking upwards I am filled with strength.

Looking within I discover peace.

 We thank you for the turning of the seasons

and the long days and the short nights,

for rest and recreation and recollection

and protect us and all those we love this summer.

 Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

When the decorations of Christmas have been packed away 
then the work of Christmas begins:

Lord, help us

to find the lost,
to heal those broken in spirit,
to feed the hungry,
to release the oppressed,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among all peoples,
and to make a little music with the heart…

Adapted from Work of Christmas Begins by Howard Thurman
