I am hoping some of you may be able to help me with something I am working on. A friend and I have volunteered to produce an on line service for our church on Mothers Day/Mothering Sunday which, fo us, is on 14th March.
We have decided to look at the history of the day and if or how it is celebrated in other parts of the world. If any of you feel like answering the following, I would appreciate it.
When do you celebrate Mother's Day - March or May?
Is it a purely secular event in your country?
Do you call the day Mother's Day or Mothering Sunday?
Are there any traditions associated with the day which you observe - either national traditions or family traditions?
I know I could just use Google, but personal stories are so much more interesting! Thank you in advance.
BTW, I also get to choose the music, so am determined to put The Wish in there somewhere!
Thank you to everyone who responded. Our service was put on the church website today and all your anecdotes were included.
Unfortunately, The Wish was ousted in favour of Let It Be!
