She opens her mouth with wisdom

 

Greetings! "She opens her mouth with wisdom, and loving instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the ways of her household..."  -Proverbs 31:26-27 Our mothers are our firsts in many ways...our first caretakers, our first teachers, our first friends, and our first encouragers. For those who grew up without their birth mothers, often it is a grandmother or aunt who stands in this important formative role. Godmothers and spiritual mothers also play a special role in passing along the faith and sharing in the role of watching over the family.    That is why we are offering a special novena of masses to honor and remember all of those who have been "mothers" to us. Our friend, Reverend Father David Cankene, a priest of the Archdiocese of Gulu, Northern Uganda, will celebrate a novena of masses for your intentions, beginning on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 8th.  I invite you to use the link below to send me the names of your mother, grandmothers, aunts, inlaws, godmothers, spiritual mothers and other loved ones who have nurtured you throughout your life so that we may offer this Novena of Masses for their spiritual or temporal needs. In this way, we can truly honor those who have gifted us with life, whether biological or spiritual.  Click here to enroll your loved ones, living and deceased, in our special Novena of Masses for Mothers and Spiritual Mothers

My prayer is that these masses will be a source of grace and blessing for all of the women in your life.  Thank you for joining us in this Novena of Masses. With gratitude, Johnnette and the Staff of Women of Grace

P.S. Should you desire to add a gift of support for these masses, you will receive as our gift links to the Women of Grace television series, "The Witness of Early Christian Women" with Mike Aquilina. P.P.S. Also available are Gregorian Masses, and single Masses for your deceased loved ones or special intentions. These Masses are personally arranged by Monsignor Matthew Odong, Vicar General of the Archdiocese of Gulu in Northern Uganda. If your mother has died, this would be a beautiful gift of remembrance.

for mothers like Sally

 

Hi again Timor, Here’s another reason I emailed you a few days ago ... for mothers like Sally. When Sally walked into the pregnancy medical center, her baby had less than 24 hours to live. I believe that breaks your heart because you have compassion for vulnerable mothers, like Sally, and their babies. Please read on! Sally admitted through tears that she had an abortion planned for the next day. “Everyone at home wants me to get an abortion. I feel lost and alone.” Because of friends like you, Sally received a free ultrasound. That’s when something miraculous happened. Sally met her baby! The sonogram revealed a 12-week-old baby. Sally took one look and said, “I’m going to cancel my abortion appointment.” Once she saw her healthy, growing baby, Sally CHOSE LIFE! Timor, if you want to help change more hearts and minds like these, I invite you to become a monthly sustainer of the Option Ultrasound Life Advocate program. This fantastic community of monthly supporters believes in the sanctity of life, rescues babies from abortion, and ministers to their mothers. Just $60 can save one baby from abortion! That means if you could save 6 babies each year with a $30 monthly gift or 12 babies with a $60 monthly gift. Your monthly donation will save lives and defend the sanctity of human life! Some generous friends who value life provided a $4 Million Match that will help you save even more lives. Your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to go TWICE AS FAR to rescue mothers and their babies from abortion. What an incredible opportunity! But please act now before this door closes. To become a monthly Life Advocate and see your first gift DOUBLED, visit https://donate.FocusOnTheFamily.com/lifeadvocate5. Blessings, Robyn Chambers Executive Director, Advocacy for Children Focus on the Family P.S. You can share the truth about life with other moms like Sally and rescue both mom and baby from the tragedy of abortion as a monthly Option Ultrasound Life Advocate. The name in the story changed to protect privacy.
