29th Sunday in Ordinary Time, October 19 2025

Isaiah 58:  Thus says the LORD: Share your bread with the  hungry, shelter the oppressed and the homeless; clothe the naked when you see them, and do not turn your back on your own.
1 Corinthians 2:  I came to you in weakness and fear and much trembling, and my message and my proclamation were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of Spirit and power, so that your faith might rest not on human wisdom but on the power of God.
Matthew 5: “… Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.”

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Make me mindful this day of the Signs of Love all around me:
Of good words spoken, of gentle touch extended,
Of important things that spring from appreciation, and true passion,
Of deeds born of generosity and real understanding.
Grant me the power this day to live with thoughtful intention in my speech, choices, and actions,
So that I may build the habit of living gracefully, with love for the people and experiences that shape my life,
Which is Your Gift of Love to me each day.
Ken Philipps

 Rosemary’s Blessing  

May those that love us, love us. And those that don't love us,

May God turn their hearts. And if He doesn't turn their hearts,

May He turn their ankles, so we will know them by their limping.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

 

Glance at the sun. See the moon and the stars.
Gaze at the beauty of earth’s greenings.
Now, think.
What delight God gives to humankind
with all these things. . . .
All nature is at the disposal of humankind.

We are to work with it.

 

Hildegard of Bingen

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.
