Rosemary's Blessing: 

Here is the quirky prayer said to be recited each day by Pope Francis and written by St. Thomas Moore reminding us to live joyfully.  It is said Thomas Moore was known for his humor and was also a man not appreciated during his lifetime.

Prayer to live Joyfully:

Grant me, O Lord good digestion and also something to digest.

Grant me,O Lord a healthy body, and the necessary good humor to maintain it.

Grant me a simple soul that knows no boredom, grumblings, sighs or laments.

Grant me, O Lord, a sense of humor.

Allow me grace to be able to take a joke–to discover in life a bit of Joy and to be able to share it with others.

Amen

Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week: 

 Christ has no body now on earth but yours,

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.

Rosemary's Blessing

Thank you Lord for giving me

The brand new year ahead.

Help me live the way I should

As each new day I tread.

Give me gentle wisdom

That I might help a friend.

Give me strength and courage

So a shoulder I may lend.

The year ahead is empty

Help me fill it with good things

Each new day filled with joy

And the happiness it brings.

Please give the leaders of our world

A courage born of peace

That they might lead us gently

And all the fighting cease.

Please give to all upon this earth

A heart that’s filled with love

A gentle happy way to live

With your blessings from above.
