Here, Mother's Day is celebrated May 10th, no matter what day of the week it falls on. This year, a women's group from a church in Chicago area donated beautifully scented lotions with a picture of the group and scripture attached to give out to the women who have children in our nutrition program. It was a joy to give these out to these women, who give and work so hard to provide for their families, usually completely unnoticed by anyone around them. We even got them to smile for some pictures - something that is very taboo in this culture!
Below are some pics and brief stories about just a few of the women we were able to hand these out to.
Here are the lotions, ready to go...
Micaela, one of our translators, read the verse to each woman and explained that this was a gift just for them to enjoy!
These two mamas both have a set of twins each...
...and this mama has a set of triplets!
Thanks to the church who made it possible for us to bless these women this mother's day with such a special gift!
