Mother's Day is not always an easy holiday for our children. Not all of them have the same fond memories of their mothers that some of us have been blessed to know. Sometime the memories that surface on this day are painful and hard to bear.
As Mother's Day approaches, we are grateful for the words of Jesus when he said "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" pointing to his disciples "Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother."
Children placed in Agape foster and adoptive home learn about the great love of Jesus. Many of them now belong to a family much bigger and greater than they could ever imagine. They now have a network of brothers, sisters, fathers
and mothers who are committed to meeting their needs.
For those of us fortunate to have great mothers in our live, Mother's Day is a perfect opportunity to make a
generous gift in memory or in honor of your mother or any woman who has been like a mother to you.
