Mother’s Day as celebrated by Saint Sophia UGCC Mission on Oahu

Mother’s Day, a special day for all mothers, will be celebrated on Sunday, May 10, 2026 at 7:15pm. This year, as the war in Ukraine enters its fifth year, the day takes on an especially profound and complex meaning.

We remember and honor mothers in Ukraine and around the world:

– Mothers whose children are on the front lines

– Mothers grieving the loss of their children in battle or from the bombardment of civilian areas

– Mothers in the diaspora living with constant concern for loved ones in Ukraine

– Children who have lost their mothers in the war

– Children separated from their mothers across borders and oceans

These are extraordinary and difficult circumstances—ones that call us to reflection, compassion, love, and prayer.

We invite you to join us on Sunday evening, May 10, 2026, at 7:15 PM (19:15), for the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom at Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Church

99-312 Moanalua Rd

Come pray with us for all Mothers during these extraordinary times.
