πΈ Happy Motherβs Day πΈ
Today, we give thanks for the many expressions of motherhood in our community β those who nurture, guide, listen, and love unconditionally.
In Luke 2:19, we are told that Mary, the mother of Jesus, βtreasured all these things and pondered them in her heart.β This quiet reflection reminds us that motherhood is not just found in big, visible acts, but in the everyday moments of presence, patience, and grace.
As a Catholic community, we celebrate the deep care and compassion that mothers β and all who care in mothering ways β bring to our lives. Today we honour biological mothers, grandmothers, stepmothers, adoptive mothers, spiritual mothers, and those who lovingly fill these roles in unseen ways.
May this day be a time of gratitude, healing, and hope. π
