Less than one week to Mother's Day! Moms do so much, they deserve to be honor at all times as the Lord says they should be. I am glad there is was a special day given for us to honor our moms nationally annually. This week we will be posting some things pertaining to MOM.
The purpose of this national holiday is to recognize the contribution of mothers and strengthen family bonds. Mother's Day was proclaimed as a national holiday on May 8, 1914 in the United States by President Woodrew Wilson. The establishment of this day of celebration can be credited to Anna M. Jarvis (1864 - 1948), who wanted to honor her mother's wish for a day of observance for mothers. When the young Anna Jarvis listened to her mother wish during a Sunday school class on women in the Bible, there was no day of observance for women. She started a campaign to fulfill her mother's wish two years after her mom died.
God Bless our Mothers!!!
