A Prayer for Mothers
As we prepare to celebrate Mother’s Day, we offer this prayer in gratitude for the mothers and mother figures in our lives:
Loving God,
We thank You for the gift of mothers—those who have nurtured us, guided us, and loved us unconditionally.
Bless all mothers with strength, patience, and joy.
Comfort those who miss their mothers, and wrap Your loving arms around those who long to be mothers.
May Mary, our Mother in faith, continue to intercede for all women entrusted with the gift of motherhood.
Amen.
We look forward to seeing many of you at our Mother’s Day Tea on Wednesday. Thank you for being such an essential part of our school family.
Mrs. Weberg
