Galatians 4:26: "But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother".
As so many others before and after me, I was born into your family, composed of different nationalities, ethnicities, beautiful people, and not a few misfits. I was immediately nursed, nurtured, and bathed, receiving your life-giving Spirit. I was encouraged often, rebuked when necessary, and always taught as I grew. For as long as I can remember, I have affirmed and loudly proclaimed your family distinctives and values along with my siblings. You have always and continue to sustain me at your bountiful Table. You never seem to tire of telling me and my brothers and sisters of the love of my Father for us. Leaving you would be death itself. Loving you is life everlasting. So, on this day in which many wish their mothers "Happy Mother's Day!", I want to add my voice to theirs and let you know how much I love you! Happy Mother's Day!
