Sunday 6 March
was Mothering Sunday. At our All Age Worship, one of the younger members read
the passage from St John’s Gospel where Jesus asked John to care for his mother
and vice versa. This was also the theme of the sermon, in which our vicar, Steve,
reminded us of the great love of Christ, particularly in his care for his
mother. He challenged us to show that same love in our relations, particularly
within our families, between parents and children and children and parents.
Our prayers were
led by a mother with her children and all the ladies in the congregation
received a Primula.
How thankful we
are for the love of our mothers, whether alive or now dead.
