    Denni reading from the Great Prophet, Isaiah.

     

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

    Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

    Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

    Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

    You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.

    Sr. Mary Elizabeth Schweiger

    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.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Loving God,

    As I journey into the unknown territory of a new year…

    As I hurt in the process of loving those I dislike or find difficult…

    As I learn to accept my strengths, weaknesses and mistakes…

    As I keep searching for the truth in times of confusion, doubt and conflict…

    As I try to be a voice for the voiceless and powerless…

    As I strive to live and witness your inclusive love, compassion, forgiveness, justice and peace…

    As I do the work of the Christmas message and make Christ visible to others…

    Walk closely with me, my God.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    Lord of all,

    Bless our families.

    Be they formed by blood or by circumstance,

    Make them holy.

     

    May we find you

    In our relationships.

    In our marriages, in our families, in our households, in our communities, in our global humanity.

     

    May we look across all that divides us

    And see family, and embrace as a family does, and love as a family ought to.

     

    For where two or three gather in your name. There are you.

    Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing

    This Christmas

    let us make visible God's love,

    forgiveness, compassion and generosity

    in our thoughts, words and actions. 

    Like the Shepherds and Kings,

    let us be courageous and find God in the different and the stranger. 

    Let us let go of grudges and hurts. Let us be strong yet gentle.  

    Let us give thanks for God’s gifts of love we find in our family, friends and earth, our common home.

    Today, in the New year, and in all the days of our lives

    Rosemary's Blessing

    The Christmas Story will always be the story of Emmanuel, of God-with-us, always and everywhere, in the everyday, in the chaos, in the flight into exile, in the love between a man and a woman and in the birth of a child. It is the story of God who heals, empowers and loves us just as we are – in our greatness and our foolishness. As we anticipate the joy, the love and the peace that are God's Christmas gifts to us, let us receive them with gratitude and be sure to unfold them and share them especially where they need to be more visible.

    Rosemary's Blessing of the Week:

    May an abundance of gratitude burst forth in our minds and hearts as we remember all the blessings in our life.
     

    May we slow our hurried pace these days so we can be aware of, and enjoy, what we can too easily take for granted.
     

    May we always be open, willing and ready to share our blessings with others and never forget the God who loves us lavishly and unconditionally.
     

    And  may we remember that our thanksgiving is incomplete until we pay it forward by doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.
     

    Amen.

    The Peace of Advent.

     

  • Announcements

     

    Rosemary's Blessing:                            

    This Advent, let us believe and trust in the broader meaning of the season. 

    Deep faith is a creative energy that opens us to participate in what God wants to do for us in our personal lives and through us in our broken world and fragile Earth.

    The weeks of Advent give us the time to ask: What are the dark places in my life that need God's wisdom, uplifting and light? 

    What's not OK in me? 

    What's preventing me from feeling the love, unity and peace I want and God desires for me? 

    Where do I fall short of witnessing God's inclusive love, mercy and justice? 

    To each of these questions, we say: Come, Lord Jesus, come!

     

    Taken from an Advent Reflection by S. Jean Amore, CSJ, VP for Mission and Academics, Sacred Heart Academy, Hempstead, N.Y.
