As we begin the month of May, remember the saying … “April showers bring May flowers!” The flowers and trees are blooming, the grass is getting greener, and the birds are singing their songs; sure, and certain signs that spring is here, and summer is coming! May is a very special month; traditionally, Catholics honor Mary, the mother of Jesus, and we also honor all mothers on Sunday, May 11th, as we celebrate Mother’s Day, a time to remember, thank, and honor all mothers, those living and deceased. We offer the following prayer: Almighty and eternal God, hear our prayers for all mothers who brought us into this world; nurturing and caring for us. We are thankful for the gift of their life and for all that they have done to help us become the person we are today. Bless our mother and all mothers, whether still here with us or have gone to their rest in the peace of the Lord. We make our prayer in the name of all that is holy. Amen. Let us be kind to one another, we are all we have!
