A Tribute to Moms Everywhere
[link removed]
In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson declared Mother’s Day a national holiday, which we celebrate the second Sunday each May, honoring mothers with gifts or grateful words.
In 1858, social activist and Sunday school teacher Ann Reeves Jarvis organized “Mothers’ Day Work Clubs” to improve unsanitary conditions and high infant mortality rates in her community—seven of Ann’s 13 children died before reaching adulthood. In 1868, Ann created “Mothers’ Friendship Day” to unite women on both sides of the Civil War.
Ann died on the second Sunday of May in 1905, and Ann’s daughter Anna Maria later honored her in a “Mother’s Day” ceremony (moving the apostrophe to honor mothers as individuals).
Moms are unique and special. So are a person’s views on motherhood. In honor of Mother's Day, Prison Fellowship spoke with several women about being a mom, both in and out of prison. See what they had to say!
