Mothers' Day Celebrations

We celebrated Mothers' Day in our parish on 17th May 2009. Fr. Rosairo OMI, and Fr. John Peter celebrated the holy mass. The liturgy was prepared by the youth of the parish. Special prayers were offered for Mothers. In the homily Fr. Rosairo highlighted the role of mothers in our lives and in the life of the church and requested the congregation to be faithful to their mothers. Fr. Subaraj, the parish priest congratulated all the mothers of the parish and prayed for special blessings on them. He also appealed to the mothers in the broken families to forgive their husbands, accept them and lead a peaceful family life together with their husbands, which is the expectation of their children. The youth read out a poem explaining the sacrificial love of mothers and all the mothers were offered a rose as a token of love.
