As Catholic women folk under the aegis of Catholic Women Organization (C. W. O) are preparing to celebrate Mothering Sunday, the Parish President of Catholic Women Organization (C. W. O) St. Mary’s Catholic Church Odo-rubber, Ogbaru LG of Anambra State, Iyiom Oby Onwuzuluora has advised Mothers to use the opportunity to evaluate their lives.
Decency as she fondly called in a chat with newsmen in Onitsha also enjoined women to desist from appearing immodest and emulate Blessed Virgin Mary in all ramifications.
Oby Onwuzuluora who is a member of prestigious Catholic women group ” Iyom Jesus” expressed worry over rampant immoral behaviours among women most especially married women, saying that some women have abused motherhood in quest for wealth and fame.
She further reminded Catholic Women Organization their popular slogan ” Through Mary Our Mother, We succeed”, wondering why some Mothers still indulging in all sorts of immoralities.
” It is painful that some mothers have actually lost their woman diginity. The most annoying aspect of it is that they have led others astry even their biological Children. Our Mother Blessed Virgin Mary is our role model especially we Christian mothers. I implore all women to read the history of Blessed Virgin Mary and emulate her life style. Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mother of God and she lived
her life decently”
” She was crowned queen of Heaven because she kept her life Holy and Secred. She is humble, patience, compassionate, perseverance, prayerful, endurance and calm. Why can’t we women emulate all these attributes of Blessed Virgin Mary and stop hashing immorality and tribulations in the Society through our attitudes”
According her, women are organizers of family, wondering what has went wrong to women especially those who have married with Children.
” So, this occasion of Mothering Sunday is a time women should take stock of their lives and examine their previous actions in life and make urgent U-turn. No evil will go unpublished. Live a decent life and let Blessed Virgin Mary be your role model so that you will be blessed. Shalom, Happy Esther celebration and Mothering Sunday” Iyom decency Onwuzuluora concluded.
