Mother's Day is a special occasion to honour the women who have nurtured, supported, and shaped our lives. As we gather to celebrate, it's an opportunity to reflect on the profound impact of mothers and the Christian values that guide us.
🌸 The Significance of Mother's Day
Mother's Day transcends cultural and religious boundaries, serving as a reminder of the selfless love and sacrifices mothers make. In the Christian context, it aligns with biblical teachings that emphasise honouring one's parents and recognising the divine role of motherhood.
📖 RCCG Open Heavens – May 11, 2025: God’s Timing
Today's devotional, titled God’s Timing, encourages believers to trust in God's perfect timing for the fulfilment of His promises. Pastor E.A. Adeboye reminds us that, like Sarah, who bore Isaac in her old age, God's promises come to fruition at the appointed time. This message resonates with the theme of Mother's Day, highlighting the importance of patience, faith, and trust in God's plan.
🕊️ Sunday School Lesson – Welfare Evangelism
The Sunday School lesson for today focuses on Welfare Evangelism, drawing inspiration from Luke 5:27-32, where Jesus calls Levi, a tax collector, to follow Him. This passage underscores the importance of reaching out to those in need, not just spiritually but also physically and emotionally. By addressing the welfare of others, we open doors to share the gospel and demonstrate Christ's love in tangible ways.
💖 Honouring Mothers Through Service
This Mother's Day, let's honour mothers not only through words but also through actions. Engaging in welfare evangelism by supporting mothers in our communities—be it through providing resources, offering assistance, or simply lending a listening ear—reflects the love and compassion Christ taught us.
Mother’s Day Game Summary: "How Well Do You Know Your Mom?"
On Mother's Day, we had a blast playing the "How Well Do You Know Your Mom?" game, a fun and lighthearted activity that brought laughter and fond memories. This interactive game helped everyone engage, reflect, and celebrate the unique bond between mothers and their children.
Here are some of the playful questions we asked:
What’s mom’s favorite food?A chance for everyone to recall their mom’s go-to comfort food and compare answers.
What is mommy’s date of birth?A fun way to test how well the children know their mother’s special day.
What is mummy’s shoe size?A playful way to get the kids to guess the details of mom’s favorite pair of shoes.
What song does mom always sing in the car or around the house?A musical moment that reminded everyone of the tunes that make mom’s heart sing.
