Mother's Day Mass 2015

Today we gathered together to celebrate the gift from God to us all – our mothers.

It was a time to reflect on how important mothers are to our lives. A mother’s love for her children is an amazing thing and truly comes from God. So let us reflect and thank God for the gift of our mums.

The altar was decorated with symbols:

To begin we bring forward symbols to tell the story of our Mums

A big heart is a symbol of the great love our Mums have for us and the love we have for them.

The watering can reminds us of all the care our Mums give us to make sure we grow and glow.

The box of tissues represent the times mums are there to dry our tears when we are not happy.

The iron symbolises reminds us of all mums do to make sure we always look our best.

The rolling pin for all the food mum cooks and packs for us.

The apron thanks mum for all the time you spend cooking, cleaning and taking care of us.

The picture of Mary symbolises Jesus’ Mum . Like Mary our mums share their unconditional love with us.

After mass the Mothers, grandmothers and parishioners joined together to have a morning tea.

We would like to wish all mothers, grandmothers, godmothers and special women in our lives a very happy Mother's day.
