    Rosemary's Blessing: 

    What Is Success

    by Ralph Waldo Emerson

     

    To laugh often and much;
    To win the respect of intelligent people and
    the affection of children;
    To earn the approbation of honest critics and endure
    the betrayal of false friends;
    To appreciate beauty;
    To find the best in others;
    To give of one's self;
    To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
    To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and
    sung with exultation;
    To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived –
    This is to have succeeded.

    Jeremiah 20:  I say to myself, I will not mention him, I will speak in his name no more. But then it becomes like fire burning in my heart, imprisoned in my bones; …

    Romans 12: … that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and  perfect.

    Matthew 16:  For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

  • 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time, August 16, 2020–Special info on this Sunday’s Celebration

     

     

    A note from John Cade:

    In the summer of 1956, when still in the seminary, I spent a week at the Trappist monastery north of Atlanta, outside Conyers, Georgia.  I got to experience how Trappist monks end every single day, expressing their devotion to Mary, Jesus’ mother—a hundred men standing together and chanting in Latin, Salve Regina, Hail Holy Queen.  August 15th is one of the days we have traditionally honored Mary.  I will chant this hymn in her honor at the end of Sunday Mass.

     

    SALVE REGINA.                                                   HAIL HOLY QUEEN.                                           

    Salve Regina, mater misericordiae:  vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve.

    Hail holy queen, mother of mercy; Our life, our sweetness and our hope.

     

    Ad te clamamus, exsules, filii Hevae.  Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.

     To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve.  To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.

     

    Eia ergo, Advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.

    Turn then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us;

     

    Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium, ostende.

    And after this exile, show us the blessed fruit of you womb, Jesus.

     

    O Clemens.   O pia.      O dulcis Virgo Maria.

    O clement,   O loving,   O sweet Virgin Mary.
