Today we honor all mothers — those who nurture, guide, and love with hearts that reflect the tenderness of Our Blessed Mother.
May Mary, the Mother of God, wrap every mother in her mantle of peace and grace.
May she strengthen weary hands, comfort anxious hearts, and fill homes with the light of Christ’s love.

“Mary, Mother of Love, pray for all mothers today and always.”

💙 Happy Mother’s Day!
