Dear Friends in Christ,

This weekend we celebrate Mother’s Day. It’s always a special weekend to express our love for the woman who brought us into the world, cared for us as an infant, took care of as a kid, was compassionate yet disciplined us when teenagers, listened to us and gave us advice as adults, helped teach us the Faith and probably prayed for us more than we know. Mothers are a great witness to the sacrificial love that Jesus expects of us as His followers.

So, yes this weekend is special. If you still have your mom – make sure you hug her, call her, spend time with her, text her, thank her and pray for her. If your mom has gone before you remember the good times you spent with her, be thankful for all she did for you and always keep her in your prayers.

God bless all our moms, those who are still with us and those who have gone before us.

God Bless,
Father Chris
