On Mother’s Day, we honor all mothers: natural mothers, stepmothers, adoptive mothers, godmothers, and all who take on a motherly role in someone’s life. We thank them for their many gifts to us, and for serving as a reminder of God’s love. And we pray that they may follow the example of Mary, our mother in heaven, in their humble and sacrificial love for those in their care.

Consider praying a Rosary today for all the mothers and grandmothers in your life. And remember to visit our website to log your Rosary for our 50,000 Rosaries Challenge this month.
Let us also remember to pray for Mother Church, that she might continue calling home all the souls who have fallen away, and welcoming with an open heart all the newly converted.
May all mothers be blessed on this special day, and may God bless you.
In Christ,
+ Bishop Robert Barron
