Devotionals For Mom

On September 11th, Patti Lynn Bongiorno sat in her Dallas living room and watched in horror as terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center in New York. She knew that a family member, the mother of two young girls, was at work in the South tower. In the days that followed, Patti rarely moved from the TV as she waited for survivors to be rescued from the rubble. On September 15th, she realized there would be no survivors and wrote, "Where Does A Mom's Love Go?" for the two little girls whose Mom would never come home again. "Moms who know they are dying leave tapes and letters for their children to open on special ocdasions such as birthdays, graduations and weddings. The moms who were killed that day never had a chance to leave behind those gifts." This book carries the message of hope for all children that
have lost their mother. "'Where Does a Mom's Love Go?' belongs
on every family's bookshelf. Children of all ages will find
the illustrations visually appealing and the gentle text reassuring.
In these troubled times, Bongiorno's book brings us closer together
and reaffirms the strength of the human spirit." On April 25th, Patti donated 300 of the books to the New York Salvation Army, specifically to comfort the children who lost their mothers in the September 11th tragedy. She did this with the promise that if they needed more, she would provide them all with copies. It is this kind and comforting spirit that makes this book a true Mother's Day tribute. "Where Does a Mom's Love Go?" is available for purchase online right now. Visit www.bongiornobooks.com for more books written by Patti Lynn Bongiorno. A portion of all her book sales goes to the "Remember the Children Yellow Bow Campaign," for children who lost parents in the September 11th tragedy. |
