THIS SUNDAY May 10th, we will explore “Mothers Day: In Search of Wisdom for This Time.”  Susan Q. Miller will perform “My Mother’s Words” and Rev. Tina will read Julia Ward Howe’s “Mother’s Day Proclamation” of 1870. Susan’s piece celebrates advice her mother gave her that she could not value until many years later. There will be a moment in worship for you to share wise words from someone in your life (could be a mother, or someone else) that have never left you. Come prepared to share, if you wish to. Julia Ward Howe asserted, “Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience. We women of one country will be too tender of those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs.” Julia wrote right after the US Civil War and mothers of 2026 face losing their children to a war with Iran. What powerful counsel do those who care about the future offer us about peace?
