Before Patrick Mahomes was even born, his mother, Randi Mahomes, would go to the church in Troup, about 20 miles Southeast from her home in Tyler, every Sunday and Wednesday with her neighbors, praying that when she has kids, this is exactly what she will teach them. Fast forward to her becoming a mother of Patrick Mahomes, Mia, and Jackson, and the lessons continued. Her greatest achievement? “I love seeing Patrick still do that.” It did not matter if she was working till 2 in the morning as an event planner, she would have everyone ready to go to the church next morning as she believed “If I couldn’t teach them something being a mom, maybe they would hear it in church.” And this habit has continued.

Remember how the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback would bow down to his knees and pray before every game? This is, in fact, a personal tradition he has created since his high school years where he would pray for two hours before taking on the field. During his pre-game press conference for Super Bowl LVIII, he also gave glory to God, mentioning how “He has a role in everything I do.” As for Randi, she has mentioned “I just pray that God protects them (every team playing).” And now, she has another reminder to the world, showing her deeply rooted belief.

Randi posted a photo from the Sunday morning Services to Night of Worship event “This is the gospel” at Rose Heights Church. In her Instagram story, she shared a quiet but powerful moment during the services from church, as the worshipers sang “Let the whole earth sing.” Her message to the world was a simple: “Jesus loves you.”

Faith is a huge part of the Mahomes family, supporting them in all the good times and carrying them through all the dark times. Earlier this year, Randi lost her father, Randy Martin. He wasn’t just her dad—he was a mentor, a teacher, and meant the world to her. When he passed away in February, she shared an emotional tribute on Instagram. One of the photos showed her holding his hand in his final moments. She quoted, “Well done, good and faithful servant! Matthew 25:23.”

Before this was her mother’s passing in April 2024. She was Patrick’s biggest and surprisingly loudest cheerleader for whom the QB told Randi which she reminisced once, “There were days that Patrick said I heard Nanny. I said, “You heard her over all the Chiefs?” She might wait until it gets a little quieter, but she’d yell, “Go Patrick!” You wouldn’t think she was a very loud woman, but she was.”

Since then, her posts have had a different kind of energy—more prayer, more real talk. She is opening up about grief, about the life as a mom of an NFL superstar, and so much more. It’s clear that the church and her faith community have become her safe place. It’s been inspiring to watch her open up like that. And let’s be real—this is the kind of energy that shaped Patrick too.

He’s known for staying cool under pressure, and he’s said before, a lot of this comes from how he was raised. Randi’s always been about keeping her kids grounded. Faith, family, staying true to your roots—that’s the true Mahomes way.

So that one Instagram story was a reminder: She’s still standing, and faith is what’s holding her up, and that’s exactly what she wants everyone to remember. Meanwhile, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes have taken an interesting approach to their family’s celebrations. Something that has got the community talking.

Patrick & Brittany’s sounds of silence

While Randi Mahomes was out here spreading love and positivity at Rose Heights Church this Sunday, fans picked up on something a little off in the Mahomes fam: total silence from Patrick and Brittany when it came to Zoe Claire’s 11th birthday a couple of days ago.

Zoe Claire—Patrick’s youngest half-sister—just turned 11, and her birthday was clearly a big deal for the rest of the family. Her parents, Pat Mahomes Sr. and Anika Cooper went all out with heartfelt tributes. A post showed Zoe dancing with her dad in the cowboy theme party, another had her rocking Patrick’s No.15 jersey next to Lionel Messi as she tried keeping the happy tears away. Her mom posted a sweet montage with the song “You Are My Sunshine.” But from Patrick and Brittany? Crickets. Nada. Not even a quick story post. And that silence stood out—especially since they’re usually all over social media when it comes to family moments.

We’ve seen them post about everything from Sterling’s ballet class to Bronze being goofy in the backyard. The internet’s already buzzing with theories. Maybe Patrick and Brittany celebrated with Zoe privately? Probably.

What makes it even more noticeable is that Zoe adores her big half-brother. She’s been at his games, rocking his number, hyping him up at every big moment. In fact, her Instagram account that Anika handles is filled with Patrick Mahomes tributes. Even last year, they skipped posting about her 10th birthday and or cheering on some of her soccer wins.

While Patrick and Brittany kept things lowkey, Randi Mahomes was doing the exact opposite. Her faith-filled Instagram story from church reminded everyone where she finds her strength—especially after the tough loss of her dad earlier this year.
