Rosemary's Blessing: 

Gracious God, slow my pace and soften my heart this Christmas,

Keep me from rushing through the season, but missing the Way …

From decorating the tree, but missing the Light …

From wrapping the gifts, but missing the Gift.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

Breathe of Summer

Creator God
who breathed this world into being,
who is discernible within
the harmony of nature,
the perfection of a butterfly’s wing,
the grandeur of a mountain range,
the soaring eagle and humming bird,
thank you for this world
which you have created.
Thank you for summer sun,
which reminds us
that your creative breath
is still alive and active.
Thank you for the warmth of your love,
sustaining this world,

Your garden
