In
our liturgy today, we heard why Mothering Sunday was so special a long
time ago. It was the one time when children working away from home got
a day off to visit their mothers.
Here are some of our Liturgy Leaders who are Mums or Grandmothers!
Today,
we give Mrs. Be-done-by-as-you-did a new heart, so that she may be able
to show love for others.
We
give our mothers flowers to show our love.
The
children preparing for their First Communion carried the cross into church
and said this prayer:
As we prepare for our First Holy Communion, we ask you, Jesus, to help
us to love other people.
Thank you for always being ready to welcome us home to share your great
feast. Amen.
