Mary Had a Little Lamb… and So Did You | Mother’s Day & Good Shepherd Sunday

How will you honor your mother today? On this 4th Sunday of Easter—Good Shepherd Sunday—and Mother’s Day, Fr. Jonathan Meyer reflects on the beautiful connection between shepherds, sheep, and the ultimate sacrificial Lamb. Drawing inspiration from the childhood rhyme Mary had a little lamb, he invites us to see both Mary, the mother of Jesus, and all mothers as shepherds leading their children in love and sacrifice.

 

Let today be a celebration of motherhood, femininity, and the Blessed Virgin Mary—who once held the Lamb of God in her arms and guided Him through life.

 

👩‍👧 Thank you, moms.

🐑 Thank you, Mary.

✝️ Thank you, Jesus, the Lamb of God.

 

Happy Mother’s Day. Happy Easter. Hallelujah!
