Sundays at All Hallows (Sunday, March 10, 2024) Is Now Online

 

Welcome to Sundays at All Hallows.

This Sunday, the Fourth Sunday in Lent, in The Church of England, The Church of Ireland and The Methodist Church in Britain is Mothering Sunday. In England and Ireland in the past apprentices and servants were customarily given the day off so they could visit the church where they were baptized or their parish church or the cathedral of the diocese. Apprentices and servants would use this occasion to visit their mothers and other members of their family and to bring them food and money. In the present day Mothering Sunday is used to honor mothers.

The Fourth Sunday in Lent is also known as Laetare Sunday, or Refreshment Sunday, so named as it at one time served as a break from the fasting and other austerities of Lent. The Simnel Cake, a type of fruit cake topped with marzipan, or sweet almond paste, was baked for this particular Sunday.

Reading: John 9:1–41
