Proud mother

Last weekend my mother received the Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice, which is the highest Catholic Church award for "distinguished service to the church by lay people".



For almost 35 years now, she has been working as a volunteer in a nursing home to help people in wheelchairs to attend mass. My brother set things in motion to apply for this award, so he got the honour to pin up the medal. The person on the left is the director of verpleeghuis Prinsenhof.
