What a wonderful gift we have in a mother. How meaningful she is in our life. She is the embodiment of concern, love, happiness and selflessness -- the personification of the very best. When she is absent, the world becomes empty and hollow. Every year, we at St. Jerome's celebrate a mother, a virgin, a handmaid, a woman of humility. Her name is Mary (in original Aramaic -- Miriam -- meaning glorified). Each year on August 15 we leave our jobs, our homes, our obligations, and come to St. Jerome's Church. Coming to her is always like coming home and so it was again this year -- we once again gathered together to honor and celebrate her.
