Rosemary's Blessing:  

 

Let us pray to our God      

To the God of Mary and Joseph,

To the God of Abraham and Sarah.

 

May our spirit fill the world with beauty and wonder.

May our mind seek truth with humility and openness.

 

May our hearts forgive without limit.

May our love for friend, enemy and outcast be without measure.

May our needs be few and my living simple.

  • Reminder for 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time, July 28, 2024

    2 Kings 4:  Elisha said, "Pass it around to the people to eat."  His servant said, "For a hundred men? There's not nearly enough!" Elisha said, "Just go ahead and do it. God says there's plenty."   And sure enough, there was. He passed around what he had – they not only ate, but had leftovers.

    Ephesians 4:  You have one Master, one faith, one baptism,  one God and Father of all, who rules over all, works through all, and is present in all. Everything you are and think and do is permeated with Oneness.

    John 6:  When the people had eaten their fill, he said to his disciples, "Gather the leftovers so nothing is wasted."  They went to work and filled twelve large baskets with leftovers from the five barley loaves.

  • Reminder for 5th Sunday of Easter, April 28, 2024

    Acts of the Apostles 9The church throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria was at peace.  It was being built up and walked in the fear of the Lord, and with the consolation of the Holy Spirit it grew in numbers.

    1 John 3:  And his commandment is this: we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another just as he commanded us.

    John 15:  I am the vine, you are the branches.  Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.

    I intended to put the second half of John Cade's Homily in the Blog last Sunday.  By mistake I put the Readings in instead.   John had since re-edited parts 1 and 2.  I am  attaching the edited versions of the April 7 and April 21 homilies.
