NDU-Shouf Campus wanted to give the NDU-SC mothers a day to remember. And that was exactly what they did!
On March 20, 2017, as the NDU-Shouf Campus mothers gathered in the conference room, they were taken by surprise. Some cried, others smiled and most of them teared up in joy as they watched videos of their children expressing their love and gratitude. Endearing words of love and congratulations flew across the room – creating a momentous unforgettable occasion.
Fr. Dominique Nasr, Assistant to the Director and Fr. Walid Nassif, University Chaplain, as well as the Pastoral Team and Mrs. Samira Saadallah had worked diligently and secretly on preparing for the event.
And that was not the only surprise! As the mothers came together to cut the cake, they stood in amazement, when they saw their own faces on that cake – a picture of all the NDU-Shouf Campus Mothers. They were even more overwhelmed when they were each given a souvenir and a beautiful rose as a sign of love and appreciation.
“No gift is ever big enough for a mother,” Fr. Hanna Tayar, Director of NDU-Shouf Campus said. “She is a world of enduring, never ending and unconditional love – much like the Virgin Mary. May Mother Mary always watch over you, your children and all your loved ones,” Father Tayar added.
Everybody then got together for a picture – to mark a truly wonderful and unforgettable NDU-Shouf Campus Mother’s Day!
