Prayer for Mothers Everywhere
In Africa, Asia, the Americas and Europe...
We give thanks for mothers everywhere.
When times are hard, in situations of suffering...
We give thanks for the sacrifices they make each
day for their children.
For their examples of love, caring, and hope...
We gibe thanks for their generosity, their compassion
and their hope for the future.
In the Congo, Iraq, Uganda, Palestine, Columbia...
We remember mothers in global community who care
for their children as guns of war are heard.
In Zimbabwe, India, Guyana, Belize, Botswana...
We remember mothers as sicknesses such as AIDS and
malaria ravage their lands.
In Haiti, Burundi,Eritrea, Cambodia, Guatemala...
We remember mothers whose access to food and
water is scarce.
In Sudan, Sri Lanka, Somalia, Afghanistan...
We remember mothers who bundled up their children,
fled their homes, and became refugees.
Mary, Mother of God, embrace all mothers, give them
strength and courage to heal the wounds of their
children and of the world. We give thanks for
mothers everywhere. Amen
