As we celebrate Mothers' Day, we would like to thank all moms for their generous, irreplaceable love and sacrifice.
Blessing for Mother’s Day
Loving God, as a mother gives life
and nourishment to her children, so you
give life and care for your Church. Bless
these women, as we celebrate this day
in their honor. May they be strengthened
as Christian mothers. Let the example of
their faith and love shine forth. Grant that we, their
sons and daughters, may honor and appreciate them
with a spirit of profound respect.
May the example of Mary, mother
of Jesus, inspire them to live their vocation
as Christian mothers and call their children
to faith. Guide and protect them in
challenging times and help them to
continue to trust in you all the days
of their life. Grant this through
Christ our Lord.
Amen
