Celebrating the gift of mothers

A mother’s love is unconditional, unbreakable, and forever. A mother’s arms are more comforting than anyone else’s. A mother’s influence on her children’s lives is beyond calculation. And Mother is the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind.

A mother’s love is unconditional, unbreakable, and forever. A mother’s arms are more comforting than anyone else’s. A mother’s influence on her children’s lives is beyond calculation. And Mother is the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind.

In commemoration and appreciation of the sacrifices mothers make, the Church of Our Lady of Good Health (OLOGH) celebrated mothers the world over on May 14. Holy Mass was presided over by parish priest, Fr. Martin Arlando, and assisted by Fr. Raymond Raj Jeremiah from the Minor Basilica of St. Anne, Bukit Mertajam.

During his homily, Fr Martin spoke on the love mankind should possess and show towards each other for the growth of Christian life.

Like Mother Mary, a mother is one of God’s greatest gifts to us. In conjunction with the day, the parishioners carried out several activities including playing games, singing songs, and fellowship at the BEC level. This was so people could experience the church and the world around them by showing Christ’s love through actions and not words alone.

Fr Martin took time out to join and participate with the different BECs.
