UK Mothering Sunday - March 26th 2017

Posted on

This loving event is celebrated at a different time to the US and most of the World.   The UK and Ireland celebrate on   the 4th Sunday of Lent, which originated hundreds of years ago when people in Britain would worship at their Mother Church on that day, and often children or apprentices in services would be given time off to visit there families. They would see their Mothers for the first time maybe, since the previous year, and bring her cakes or flowers.   Even though that  practice died out, and attendance dropped off in Churches, the celebration continues.  

Check out our UK section to see if there are any gifts we can send for you to celebrate her day!
