Happy Mothers Day

Proverbs 1:8-9 ESV Hear, my son, your father’s instruction, and forsake

not your mother’s teaching, (9) for they are a graceful garland

for your head and pendants for your neck.

This is Mothers Day month and Lois’ Lodge is all about moms and babies. Mothers Day is primarily a time of celebration. But it can also be a time of challenge for women who have had abortions in their past. It is important that we also remember to keep those moms in our thoughts and prayers.

Planned Parenthood, America’s biggest abortion provider ran a special promotion for Mothers Day this year. If you didn't know what to get your mom on May 9, they had an idea. Planned Parenthood President Cecile wrote, "It's almost Mother's Day ... and if you have a mother in your life who's anything like me or my mom (the late Texas Governor Ann Richards), then you know nothing would make her happier than a gift that represents bold and compassionate values. Like a gift in her honor to Planned Parenthood Federation of America," she writes. The contradiction in this appeal is that Richards is asking people to celebrate motherhood by giving to a business that destroys that opportunity.

At Lois’ Lodge we believe that a much better way to celebrate mothers and Mothers Day is through a gift to an organization that helps women to cherish their motherhood. Lois’ Lodge provides an opportunity for women to choose life for their children through caring for these moms, teaching them life skills and sharing the love of Christ with them. Thank you for your ongoing prayers and donations. Your giving helps to make all of this happen. You are helping to make Mothers Day a special day for these moms and babies through your generous support.
