To the Dearest Mothers of St. Barnabas Church, Elekahia,

A Message from Your Youths on this Mothering Sunday

Greetings, Virtuous Women of God! We, the youths of St. Barnabas Church, raise our voices in joyful praise on this blessed Mothering Sunday. Today, we celebrate your unwavering love, the tireless care you shower upon us, and your unwavering devotion to the service of Christ.

Like pillars of strength, you stand firm, sustaining the very foundation of our church. Your dedication to God's work inspires us, and your nurturing hands guide us on the path of righteousness. You are the backbone of our faith, raising the next generation of Christians who will carry the torch of the Gospel forward.

We understand that these are trying times, with economic hardships that weigh heavily on your hearts and households. Yet, we are reminded of the unwavering faith of women who came before you. We see the strength of the Virgin Mary, the unwavering devotion of St. Anna the prophetess, the relentless pursuit of Christ by Mary Magdalene, the dedication of the sisters Mary and Martha, the kindness of Dorcas, and the unwavering faith passed down by Lois and Eunice to Timothy. These women, and countless others, helped establish the early church, a testament to the power of faith that resides within you.

May their stories be a beacon of hope, urging you to keep the flame of your faith burning bright. Never lose sight of the immense power you hold as mothers and pillars of our church. We, the youths of St. Barnabas, stand beside you, forever grateful for your love and guidance.

May God, in His infinite mercy, shower you with abundant blessings. May your works be fruitful, your households find peace and prosperity, and your faith continue to be an inspiration to all who know you.

Happy Mothering Sunday!

With love and appreciation,

The Youths of St. Barnabas Church, Elekahia
