Please join Kingswood Church as we celebrate Mother’s Day and rejoice in the witness of strong and faithful women who have encouraged and empowered us in our faith journeys. Mother’s Day began in May of 1907 in the Methodist Episcopal Church in Grafton, West Virginia, when Anna Jarvis wanted to honor her mother who had died two years previous. The Methodist Church began the movement to make it a national holiday that honored mothers and those like mothers who had shared their faith and worked for love and peace in every place. Today, we honor and remember all women in our lives and faith as we hear the powerful witness of Queen Esther against injustice and also experience the profound description of strong women in Proverbs 31.
