Mother's Day with Pope Francis ~ Information Provided by Cecilia Hull

"In today's fragmented world, where we risk losing our bearings, a Mother's embrace is essential.  How much dispersion and solitude there is all around us! The world is completely connected, yet seems increasingly disjointed.  We need to entrust ourselves to our Mother."

These words were said by Pope Francis at the 52nd World Day of Peace on January 1, 2019. Here we are in 2020, feeling much the same.  For Mother's Day, read the Pope's message from 2019 about mothers and Mary.  You might find a sentence that reminds you of the important person in your life who loved you like a son/daughter.

Happy Mother's Day to the members of our parish!

"And in the journey of life, let us allow ourselves to be taken by the hand.  Mothers take their children by the hand and lovingly introduce them to life."
