Blessing for Mothers

Loving God, as a mother gives life and nourishment to her children, so you watch over your Church. Bless these women, that they may be strengthened as Christian mothers. Let the example of their faith and love shine forth. Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honor them always with a spirit of profound respect.  Grant this through Christ our Lord.

“The loveliest masterpiece of the heart of God, is the heart of a mother.”  ~ St. Therese of Lisieux
