For All Those Who Mother
Creator, we give thanks for all those who mother in diverse and wonderful ways. May we find words and ways to express our gratitude.
For the mothers who build peace all around the world that the lives of their children might be transformed. May the origins of this day be honored with our deepened commitment to peace.
For the mothers of Black sons, of Indigenous daughters, of all racialized children. May racist violence and white supremacy end and safety, equity and justice for all children be made real.
For the spiritual mothers, chosen mothers, mothers of history and mothers of movements who have helped to bring about change in church and world. May our lives and our choices build on their legacy.
For those seeking to mother who are denied, for those who grieve their mothers, for mothers who grieve their children, and for those for whom the word “mother” is pain and not comfort. May your stories be honoured.
For our Mother the Earth, who is wounded by our neglect and excess. May we learn from what she is teaching us about how to truly live.
We lift all these prayers to you, Creator. With your Mothering love, receive our prayers.
Amen
Jennifer Henry
