What a wonderful Sunday we had on May 13th as we celebrated Mother's Day at Betania. The church was full with mothers, grandmothers and even great grandmothers. Also present were the children, nieces, nephews, of these great women as well as grandchildren and great grandchildren and all their children,. What jubilation it was to see all these children of God coming together to celebrate this special day called Mother's Day. What a wonderful way to show our love for our mothers by spending time with them, especially at church.
Our mothers were given stems of red carnations and our Pastor, Dr. Ciro D. Garcia, bought a profound message on Mothers (God Spirited Mothers). We also rejoiced by singing hymns and praise worhip songs - what a Celebration!
Hopefully all mothers were able to see their children on this very special day.
