Mother’s Day – a remembrance

Bishop Murphy celebrates Mother’s Day in his weekly Montana Catholic Register “Reflections” column. Mother’s Day in his words is a “celebration of life and love.” He shares poignant personal memories of the many gifts his Mother bestowed upon him. In a moving passage Bishop Murphy says, “Life was simpler and less demanding, but my mother in a quiet yet powerful way shared values of importance that remain with me to this day – the value of Church and Catholic education, the importance of family and relatives, the need for patience and tolerance.”
