Beginning on Monday, May 3, 2021, and throughout the month of May, the virtual Mother’s Day Tribute video will be available for viewing on the Bienville Parish Library YouTube™ Channel. The program opens with an introduction from Adult Outreach Services Coordinator, Jacqueline Cato and an original poem written and read by Andrea Davis, Circulation Clerk at the Bienville Parish’s Arcadia Main Library.

Musical arrangements and spoken performances are by Mr. Ricky Davis. Davis takes you through a montage of songs and spoken performances that honor the women who have influenced us, have been there to hold us when we were sad, lifted us up when we were down, disciplined us when we were ‘sassy’ and rebellious, offered guidance when we lost our way, and led us back to our faith with the certain knowledge of God’s continued love and devotion for us all.

With COVID restrictions still in place, especially among our older and more vulnerable patrons, this video is being posted to YouTube™ with the unlisted link being offered for playing in nursing homes, churches and facilities where contact is still limited. The link will also be posted to our Bienville Parish Library Facebook page and BPL Group Pages for viewing throughout the month of May and will remain with the other videos in the YouTube™ playlists.

We hope you enjoy this tribute to mothers everywhere! To all the influential women in our lives – We wish you a Happy Mother’s Day!
