Rosemary’s Blessing

Grant us, Lord God,

A vision of your world as your love would have it: 

A world where the weak are protected, and none go hungry or poor; 

A world where the riches of creation are shared, and everyone can enjoy them; 

A world where different races and cultures live in harmony and mutual respect; 

A world where peace is built with justice, and justice is guided by love.

Give us the inspiration and courage to build it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Rosemary’s Blessing 

Life is short …

Break the rules,

Forgive quickly,

Kiss slowly,

Love truly,

Laugh uncontrollably,

And never regret anything that made you smile.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

 

A Prayer For Growing Old Gracefully

Lord, Thou knowest better than I myself that I am growing older and will someday be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion.

Release me from craving to straighten out everybody's affairs. Make me thoughtful but not moody; helpful but not bossy. With my vast store of wisdom, it seems a pity not to use it all; but Thou knowest, Lord, that I want a few friends at the end. Keep my mind free from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point. Seal my lips on my aches and pains; they are increasing, and love of rehearsing them is becoming sweeter as the years go by.

 

Rosemary reading her Blessing of the Week.

 

I dare not ask for improved memory, but for a growing humility and a lessening cock-sureness when my memory seems to clash with the memories of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken.

Keep me reasonably sweet, for a sour old person is one of the crowning works of the devil. Give me the ability to see good things in unexpected places and talents in unexpected people; and give, O Lord, the grace to tell them so.

Amen.

17^th Century Nun’s Prayer

God,

Bless anyone who has asked me to pray for them

    and anyone that I have promised to pray for.

Bless anyone that I cannot get along with

    and anyone that cannot get along with me.

Bless the person who has hurt me deeply

    and anyone that I have hurt

Bless the person that I cannot forgive

    and anyone that cannot forgive me.

Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today

    and to treat all I meet today with dignity

Lord God who is endlessly patient

with our foolish and annoying frailties,

instill in us patience for our fellow humans. 

Help us to keep our temper cool,

our nerves calm,

and our disposition amiable.

May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

It is there for each and every one of us.

For those who have wondered about where our food drives go, Ken explains:

The food goes to the Network of Community Ministries which provides food, clothing, some limited financial assistance, and referrals, etc. to needy persons who live in the city of Richardson or the Richardson School District. We got started there because Cindy was volunteering there.

 

Jim Mahar of St. Bonaventure & the Bona Responds Team in Dallas to work for a week on the tornado damage.  Jim, instead of taking a cupcake (can you believe!), accepted from us a chain saw.
