As a Christian, I believe every human deserves love and support, regardless of their circumstances, including single mothers raising their children alone.
Being a single mother can be a difficult journey, full of challenges and obstacles, but I believe that with faith and determination, anything is possible. I deeply respect single mothers who work hard to provide for their families, often sacrificing their needs and wants.
In the Bible, there are many examples of strong women who faced adversity and overcame it with God’s help. One such example is Ruth, a widowed single mother in the Old Testament; despite her difficult circumstances, she remained faithful and was blessed by God.
Apart from providing emotional and spiritual support, we can offer practical assistance, such as childcare, financial help, and job training, by coming together as a community.
Through this means, we can help single mothers and their children thrive.

Offer practical help: Single mothers often have a lot on their plate, from work and household responsibilities to childcare and financial management.

Listen without judgment: Single motherhood can be isolating, and these women need someone they can talk to who will listen with empathy and understanding. Whether over the phone, through text, or in person, being a good listener can be a powerful way to offer support.
