This Sunday is Mother’s Day! As we reflect on how our mothers and grandmothers and other mother-like women have impacted our lives, let us each take time to thank them this weekend for their love and sacrifice. Mothers and fathers each have an essential role in the family unit, especially in the sacred responsibility of raising children. Strong family units build strong communities, states, and nations. A godly mother’s distinct influence is an essential aspect of the strength each family needs to thrive.

This Mother’s Day let’s remember those who have had this profound impact on our lives and recognize all they do. Take time to thank and honor the women in your life who have loved you, invested in you, and have been an example for you. Dads, be sure your children know how much you love and value their mother! Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms!
