MOTHER’S DAY

As we celebrate Mothers’ day on this Sunday I wish all mothers in our cluster parishes a most Happy Mothers’ day.
On this day we celebrate the unconditional love of mothers to their children and children’s love for their mothers.
“Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres and Love never fails” (1 Cor. Ch. 13). We ac
knowledge the tremendous impact mothers have on their children. It is said “if you educate a man you educate one in
dividual and if you educate a woman you educate a family.” Let us gratefully admit the fact that none of us is able to
return to our mothers, in the same measure, all the sacrificial love that they have given us. Today I will offer the Mass
for all the mothers in our cluster parishes, whether they are alive or have gone to their eternal reward, and offer them
on the sacred altar. On this Mothers’ day as we honor and pray for our earthly mothers let us also be reminded of our
heavenly Mother, Blessed Virgin Mary. 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 and pray for her intercession and motherly care for
all of us. God Bless! Father Maria Joseph Kodiganti
