I feel ur pain brova, lost mine to the cold hands of death too....they r all resting on d bossom of the lord...

My mom i love u so much, may ur blessing upon my life start manifesting in this year 2016 Amen.

Mothering Sunday is NOT the same thing as Mother's Day.

Mothering Sunday is a sort of religious, while Mother's Day is secular, meant to celebrate mothers and motherhood, in a way somewhat similar to such days as World Cancer Day, World AIDS Day, Water Day, and the likes.

Mother's Day falls on second Sunday in May, or in some countries, in the months of March or May, unlike Mothering Sunday which occurs mid-Lent. This may vary from denomination to denomination. Sometimes, the celebration is postponed till after Lent.

It might interest you to know that Mothering Sunday actually has or had nothing to do with mothers in particular. The "mother" in Mothering Sunday refers to mother church, that is, the church where you were baptised, or your parish priest or the nearest cathedral.

Mothering Sunday was originally when people gathered with their families at their mother church to celebrate Laetare Sunday.

Young workers were given a day off to visit their mother church, and on their way, they would pick flowers to place them in the church or give to their mothers. This flower presentation has changed to the modern-day practice of giving gifts to mothers on such day.

Not so. Mother's Day is not religious... it is like such things as World Cancer Day, World HIV Day, World Water Day and the likes.

The previous celebrations were Mothering Sundays... today is Mother's Day. It is not Pentecostal.

it it's not Pentecostal, then why is mother's day always falling on Sundays every year?

@worlexy,
It could have been fixed any other day, but Sunday was chosen.

my question is why always Sundays if it is not religious. Workers day for example is May 1st of every year which means it will fall on different days of the week every year. Why not mother's day too if it's secular and not religious. Pls note that I'm a Christian so I'm not against it being celebrated on Sundays I just want to be educated

Anna Jarvis, social activist, was the founder of Mother's Day in the US. In 1908, she held a memeorial ceremony to honour her [dead] mother and mothers at Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church. Most US states started observing Mother's Day as a local holiday by 1911.

According to Lois M. Collins (6 May 2014), in 1914, Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation designating Mother's Day, held on the second Sunday in May, as a national holiday to honor mothers.
