Mother's Day Brunch and Bible Message

The mothers at our established church were celebrated with a special breakfast- prepared and served by the men in the congregation!  Women greatly outnumber the men at the church, as many are single mothers, widowed, or wives of unbelievers- and are often not celebrated or appreciated on Mother’s day for their amazing ministry to their children.

Over 20 women attended our outside brunch, where they were pampered with an

abundant meal, dessert, games and fellowship time- all while taking a break from childcare responsibilities, as childcare was offered by the youth group.  Even a couple women new to the church joined our group- where they could experience and hear for themselves the Love of the Lord.

I gave the Bible message to the women from Matthew 28: our Jesus-given mandate to make disciples of all nations- especially our children!  And, considering such an

important, life-or-death task of guiding our children to salvation in Jesus Christ, we were encouraged by Psalm 18, which presents our God with the love, protection, and force of a mother toward His daughters who call to Him.  

The Lord’s love and enjoyment in me as His child has taken on a whole new meaning now (only my second mother’s day as a mother myself) as I love and enjoy my own child more than I could have imagined.

How great the Father’s love for us!

Our prayer is that each of the women would be strengthened and directed by God’s love and attention, as well as commands, to them!
