The Most Important Person

on earth is a mother. She 
cannot claim the honor of 
having built Notre Dame 
Cathedral. She need not. She 
has built something more 
magnificent than any 
cathedral-a dwelling for an
immortal soul, the tiny
perfection of her baby's
body…The angels have not
 been blessed with such a
grace. They cannot share in 
God's creative miracle to bring 
new saints to Heaven. Only a 
human mother can. Mothers 
are closer to God the Creator 
than any other creature; God 
joins forces with mothers in 
performing this act of 
creation…What on God's 
good earth is more glorious 
than this: to be a mother?

BLESSED MOTHERS' DAY!!
The Most Important Person 

On earth is a mother. She 
cannot claim the honor of 
having built Notre Dame 
Cathedral. 

She need not. She 
has built something more 
magnificent than any
cathedral-a dwelling for an
immortal soul, the tiny
perfection of her baby's
body…


The angels have not
been blessed with such a
grace. They cannot share in
God's creative miracle to bring
new saints to Heaven. Only a
human mother can. 


Mothers
are closer to God the Creator
than any other creature; God
joins forces with mothers in
performing this act of
creation…


What on God's
good earth is more glorious
than this: to be a mother?

-Joseph Cardinal Mindszenty
