Dear Parishioners
Today we thank our mothers, pray for them, honor them by celebrating Mother’s Day
and by offering our mothers on the altar of God.
This is a day to admit gratefully the fact that none of us is able to return, in the same measure, all the love that our mothers
have given us. Their influence on their children is so great that it affects the children throughout their lives. Our mothers not
only gave us birth but nursed us, nurtured us, trained us in their religious beliefs and practices, taught us good manners and
ideal behavior, disciplined us as best as they could, and made us good citizens of our country, our Church, and our society.
There is a beautiful Spanish proverb: “An ounce of mother is better than a pound of clergy.” Hence, it is highly proper for us
to express our love and gratitude to our mothers by our presence, gifts, and prayers on Mother’s Day. We offer this
Eucharistic celebration on Mother’s Day for all the mothers in our congregation, whether they are alive here or have gone for
their eternal reward. The word “mom” is synonymous with sacrificial, agápe love in its purest form, as commanded by Jesus
in his farewell speech: “Love one another as I have loved you.” Hence, let us lavish our love on our mothers and express
our gratitude for them in the form of fervent prayers offered for them before God.
On this Mother’s Day, let us acknowledge the truth that we have two mothers: our earthly mother and our Heavenly Mother,
the Mother of Jesus. The Catholic Church proclaims the great nobility of the Mother of Jesus, Mary most holy, and presents
her as the supreme model for all mothers. On this Mother’s Day, presenting all mothers on the altar, let us sing the beautiful
song we sing on the Feast of the Presentation, “Gentle woman, peaceful dove, teach us wisdom, teach us love.” Let us show
our love and appreciation for both of our mothers and let us ask our Heavenly Mother to take care of our earthly mothers.
We need to be persons for others, sacrificing out time, talents and lives for them as our mothers do for us every day.
Happy Mother’s
Day!
God Bless,
Fr. Scott

Saint of the week.
St Bridget is the patron saint of Sweden, Europe, and
widows.
St Bridget of Sweden, born Birgitta, was a Swedish mystic
and religious Order foundress who lived in the 1300s and
was gifted with special visions from Jesus Christ.

She did so, and after this period ended, Birgitta and her (Living )

Bridget died in July, 1373, and did not see her efforts come
