Happy Mother’s Day! Join Ijeoma in prayer honouring the strength, love, and sacrifice of all mothers. May God bless them with patience, wisdom, and peace; comfort those who grieve or hurt; and inspire families to cherish and support their mothers every day. We entrust all our intentions to the loving care of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our model of grace and motherly love.
