Someone told me that the word “unprecedented” is beginning to annoy!! I can see why. Everything at the moment seems to be unprecedented, including Mothers’ Day. At Mass today, I shared some lines I’d written for my mother back in 2002. Were she here today, I’d like to think they’d more or less be the same words.
To all mothers, God bless you on this day and every day.
Mother's Day 2002
Leonard Cohen has lovely words about seeking reassurance from his mother. They come to mind today …
This is from a song called “The Night Comes On”

Hi there Fr. Vincent, this Mass was a beautiful Mother’s Day remembrance and it is with fond thoughts that we remember your Mother,Mary. Thank you for opening our eyes as Our Lord did for the blind man and helping us to recognize the Lord is with us at this time and to the beauty of his creation around us. We are never alone. Will remember your Mom in our prayers today
Thank you, Jeanie and Corky
Beautiful words.
