Loving God,
we thank you for all the mothers in the world.
Bless them so that they may always give life

and constant concern
for their bodily and spiritual health.
Grant that we, their children
may honour them always
with a spirit of profound love, respect
and thanksgiving.
Through Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
