Happy Mother’s Day! Mary, on this day when we honor all mothers, we turn to you. Dear mother, intercede for all of our mothers. Ask your Divine Son to give them the grace of surrendered love so that they could join with you in giving their own "Fiat." May they find daily strength to say yes to the call to the sacrificial love- the very heart of the vocation of motherhood. May their love and witness be a source of great inspiration for all of us called to follow your Son. Mother of the Word Incarnate, pray for us who have recourse to you. www.catholic.org/prayers/
