Today, while some people wait at home, women caregivers and life-givers throughout our lands, cultivate with love, irrigate with perseverance, and patiently harvest the future of tomorrow.

They provide food for their children, their nieces and nephews or grandchildren, but also, for ours. Food on the table has all the love of a woman. And isn’t this the love of God?

“Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.” – Proverbs 31-31
