St. John Paul II on Motherhood
Benedictine CollegeHere are some pictures of Benedictine moms dropping their kids off at school, with John Paul’s reflection on motherhood.
“Motherhood is woman’s vocation. It is an eternal vocation, and it is also a contemporary vocation.
“‘The Mother who understands everything and embraces each of us with her heart’ …
“… these are words of a song, sung by young people in Poland, which come into my mind at this moment.
“The song goes on to announce that today the world is particularly ‘hungry and thirsty’ for that motherhood, which is woman’s vocation physically and spiritually, as it is Mary’s.”
