ACHIEVING MOTHERS' DAY HONORS WITH DIGNITY AND PROFOUND RESPECT

On May 10, 2009, we will all celebrate another day in honor of all of the Mothers in the world and especially in the United States of America. To salute the achievements of all of the loving mothers who have been selfless and generous in their total dedication to their families gives us all reasons to celebrate the unappreciated, the abused, the taken-for-granted women who give all but with little or nothing in return for their unconditional love for their spouses and their children. Many mothers have had the opportunities to see their children grow into wonderful examples of womanhood and manhood. In addition, many of these children have been conscientious in giving back love and honor to the very mothers who gave them life from conception to birth unselfishly and courageously. To those given much love, much more love is expected.

Many single mothers have shouldered the responsibilities of both parents in a world that separates families by their negative attitudes toward the most profound profession in the world....MOTHERHOOD. Many women have made serious sacrifices for their families by giving of their total beings to raising children in very challenging times. With careers on the line, many women have temporarily suspended their career ambitions to commit to the mission of the mother who really cares about her children and who is the first teacher of her children. A mother is the heart and the neck of every family with her achievements in making houses a true home for her children. Her nurturing care and guidance have succeeded in fostering future leaders of our Country and of many leaders in the world. With sadness do we read of negative leaders who apparently ignored the wonderful examples of their mothers and have sought to be greedy and power-hungry without any regard for the value of human life.

We are very proud to call her, Mother, Mom, because she has earned the respect and the dignity of giving her body as a temple for the growth of a new living unborn child. The innocence of the child yet to be born knows the mother before he or she is born into this world. The child is happy that his or her mother gave her or him an opportunity to be born in spite of all of the challenges that each mother faces prior to actual birth. The ongoing challenges of raising a young child and making a family loving and respectful of others is a mother's task. THANKS, MOM, FOR THE GIFTS OF LIFE AND LOVE. IT IS GREAT TO BE ALIVE. Thank you, Mother, for being there for us when we were growing up and needed your guidance and your compassion and your empathy. May all Mothers who have earned their eternal rewards in Heaven continue to intercede with God for all mothers who are currently the heart and the neck of all families.

In honor of the Most Important Mother of all time, Jesus' Mother Mary, we offer the following prayer:

"O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of heaven and earth, and of our family, rule over us, together with the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ, our King. Save us from the spreading flood of modern paganism, kindle in our hearts and homes, the love of purity, the practice of the Christian life, and an ardent zeal for souls, and for the holiness of family life."

"We come with confidence to you, O Throne of Grace and Mother of Fair Love; inflame us with same divine fire which has inflamed your own Immaculate Heart. Make our hearts and homes your shrine, and through us make the Heart of Jesus Christ rule and triumph in every family in the world. Amen."

HAPPY LOVING MOTHERS' DAY TO ALL ACHIEVING MOTHERS!
