My name is Lupita, and this is my warrior mother, Raquel. I was separated from her for the first 15 years of my life. I began living with her as a teen, which had been difficult for each of us, especially not having a relationship with God. At 18, I began what would be a long 6 years without speaking to her. But God, on August 15, 2021, snatched my soul at church and told me to get right with others to be reconciled with Him. In response to this divine call, my mom was the first person I invited to my baptism on my birthday. Sunday, December 12, 2021, I surrendered my life to Christ in front of all my family at NBCC. On May 28, 2023, my mom gave her life to the only Redeemer, Jesus Christ. All glory belongs to the only Savior for humanity. Jesus for my family!

My name is Dylan, and my mother Stephanie is the most beautiful, inspiring, and strongest woman I know. All my life, she has taught me the importance of God’s grace and how through faith he shall guide me through all my troubles. She has inspired me to work hard and be grateful every single day, and I know that she will always be there to support me, and I thank God to have a mother as wonderful as her. Even as our family grieves the loss of our loved ones over the years, I am so proud of her strength through adversity as she motivates me every day to keep my head up and thank God for every blessing he’s bestowed upon us. I have so much love and admiration for my mother, and I’m so grateful to be able to call her mine.

My name is Sharon and our mother Veronica Mukui is one of the strongest women, who is raising two of the happiest people, my brother and me. She was strong for me while I was in a coma and showed up for weeks until I finally moved a finger. Through all of this, she was able to bring my baby brother and best friend into this world. We are both very blessed to have a role model and best friend as great as our mama. I have love and respect all of the mothers of this world for raising us children.
