Rosemary’s Blessing:

During this Lenten season, may we …

• Fast from criticism, and feast on praise.
• Fast from self-pity, and feast on joy.
• Fast from ill-temper, and feast on peace.
• Fast from selfishness, and feast on service.
• Fast from fear, and feast on faith.

Taken from Bishop Arthur Lichtenberger’s words of Lenten advice.

Rosemary’s Blessing

 Christ has no body now on earth but yours,

      no hands but yours,

      no feet but yours,

 Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s

      compassion is to look out to the world,

 Yours are the feet with which Christ is to

      go about doing good,

 Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to  

     bless all people now.

 From a prayer by Teresa of Avila (1515–1582)
