Mothers Day at Don Bosco Oratory Sampran, Thailand

SAMPRAN: 13th August 2008 -- Mothers Day in Thailand is chosen to coincide with the Queen's birthday.  On Sunday 10th August 2008, Don Bosco Oratory Sampran offered support to the gratitude of children to their mothers with a series of activities.
   Some 70 boys and girls and around 20 mothers came to the oratory that day for the festivities which began with praise to Mary the Mother of God, example for all mothers.  Then a representative of the mothers shared something of her life and ways of caring for her children.  This was the signal for all the children to go to their mothers and offer them some flowers and appreciative words.
    Following the formal ceremony, the oratory assistants, who include a wide range of young men in initial formation (SDB prenovices, novices and those in temporary profession, FMA Sisters and aspirants, DQM pre-novices and Capuchin prenovices), set in motion the various plays and dances prepared by the children under their supervision.
    As Brother Anusit Chanphen Anthony sdb, the author of this news item and third student of philosophy at Sampran puts it: "We believe this activity is important for everyone, because each of us has a mother.  Mothers Day certainly helps our children in the oratory to love their mothers and express gratitude to them every day of their lives".
