“The loveliest masterpiece of the heart of God is the heart of a mother.” – St. Therese of Lisieux
Mother’s Day is a special holiday for Mommies Matter to celebrate the organization’s mommies and the gift of motherhood. As the group journeys with its single mothers throughout the year, they witness first-hand their resilience, hope and faith when it comes to choosing life and embracing the struggles that come with single parenthood.
Motherhood is a gift, and the organization’s single mothers need the love and support of a community as they strive to live out their God-given vocation as mothers. One of the mommies shared the impact that the community of Mommies Matter had on her:
“In many ways, this program has saved my daughter’s life as well as my own. As a new mom that is still in college, I knew that I would have to deal with a lot of stress throughout my pregnancy and the stress that comes with being a new, single mom. I had really wanted to lean towards getting an abortion. I can honestly say that I know that I made the right decision to have my daughter.
“She’s worth all the hardships I faced then and am facing now. I know I can get through it because of what I’ve gotten through already, and those are the things that Mommies Matter has helped me realize and understand. I am so grateful for everything that Mommies Matter has done for me.”
This Mother’s Day, Mommies Matter invites you to join them in celebrating motherhood. You are invited to donate to Mommies Matter between May 7-14 to celebrate the special mother in your life, whether it be your mother, wife, daughter or friend. Your support enables Mommies Matter to provide the financial, emotional and spiritual support that single, pregnant mommies need.
When you become a monthly donor of $9 or more, the special mother in your life will receive a Mommies Matter Mother’s Day Gift Box. For a one-time donation of $40 or more, she will receive a Mommies Matter tumbler.
