Mother’s Day Blessing

Holy God,
you compared your own love for your people to the love of a mother for her children.

Look with kindness on our mother who has shared in your creating love by the gift of her children. We thank you for the joys and sorrows of her life, the giving and sharing, and, especially for your love that has formed us in your image.

Listen to our prayers and bless the mother who has nurtured and sustained us. Give her patience in abundance and let her find joy and satisfaction in all her work.

Glory and praise to you, loving God, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the Virgin Mary, and who reigns with you in the glory of heaven, for ever and ever. Amen.

—Blessings and Prayers for Home and Family
