Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:
God of every nation and people,
you have made known your light and love
since the beginning of creation,
and then to us through Jesus Christ.
This Advent, may we be open to receiving
your light and love in new ways
and to witnessing in our world the unity, inclusivity, mercy and justice
that Jesus so desires of us.
Amen.
