As we celebrate Mother’s Day, let’s reflect on this beautiful prayer (edited for length) from Education for Justice, a project of The Ignatian Solidarity Network.
Let us rejoice in Mary, our mother and sister, and know her presence at our side as she once stood at the side of her Son, Jesus. May she be with all mothers who are trying to nurture their children in difficult situations and to protect their children from violence. With the strength of Mary, may all mothers and all those who nurture others speak out so that all children may grow up in peace.
