FOR ALL MOMā€™s

ā€œA mother is the truest friend we have when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our heartsā€.ā€“Washington Irving.

Happy Motherā€™s Day for:

  • New mothers, coming to terms with new responsibility
  • Expectant mothers, wondering & waiting
  • Those who are tired, stressed or depressed
  • Those who struggle to balance the tasks of work & family
  • Those who are unable to feed their children due to poverty
  • Those whose children have physical, mental or emotional disabilities
  • Those who have children they do not want
  • Those who raise children on their own
  • Those who have lost a child
  • Those who care for the children of others
  • Those whose children have left home
  • And for those who desire to be a mother has not been fulfilled.

Bless all mothers, that heir love may be deep and tender, and they may lead their children to know and do what is good, living not for themselves.
