The month of May within our Catholic tradition provides us with an opportunity to give thanks to our Good Mother Mary. Mary puts her complete trust in the presence of God in her life. When she says \u2018YES\u2019 to God\u2019s call. <\/span>\u201cMary\u2019s encounter with the angel Gabriel actually strengthens her. For the Annunciation story is all about divine love as the source of empowerment\u2026The Annunciation story then is about a self-possessed, self-focussed and self-conscious poor young woman who finds favour with God and is willing to cooperate with a wild plan of salvation. It is about a woman strong enough to risk believing something incredible about herself: the Lord is with you\u201d <\/span><\/i>(Sebastian Moore, 2021).<\/span><\/p>\n

Mary, Our Good Mother Prayer<\/b><\/em><\/h6>\n

Mother of Jesus and Mother of the Church,\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

walk with us now, sharing our joys and sorrows, our successes and failures.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

In our daily lives, show us your Son, who lives in us.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Help us to listen to Him,\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

to act on His Word and do our part in<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0building the kingdom of justice and peace.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

It was wonderful to see so many Mother\u2019s, Grandmother\u2019s, Aunty\u2019s and very special women in\u00a0<\/span>our community gathered for our Mother\u2019s Day Mass and Breakfast this week. One day does not seem <\/span>enough to say thank you for all the special things they do each and every day. The special <\/span>women in our lives always walk beside us, encourage us and motivate us to do our best, which <\/span>helps us to push the limits so we can achieve great things. We are inspired by these special <\/span>women\u2019s faith, dedication and commitment to us each and every day. Pope Francis<\/strong> reflected on the important role that our mothers play in our lives by saying:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMothers are indispensable to society and the church, showing the world what it means to<\/span><\/i><\/h6>\n
generously give oneself for others, to respect life and to display tenderness and moral strength<\/span><\/i><\/h6>\n
even in times of trouble\u201d<\/em><\/h6>\n
