A PRAYER FOR ALL MOTHERS:
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL MOMS IN THE WORLD!
As we prepare ourselves to celebrate Mother’s day on the 2nd Sunday of May (in some countries, the 1st Sunday, see list below), we would like to thank all moms for their generous, irreplaceable love and sacrifice.
To all mothers: Here’s a prayer for all of you!
To my 2 moms in heaven: Mother Mary and my mom, Lourdes, thanks for everything! A big, strong hug and lots of love!
Loving God,
as a mother gives life and nourishment to her children,
so you give life and care for your Church.
Bless all our mothers, 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 love, respect and thanksgiving.
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.
And for our mothers who have gone before us, admit them to your kingdom, for if we now acknowledge and praise you as our One True God, it was due to the ardent and constant faith they have lived and lovingly transmitted to us from our infancy.
Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
