Friends,
The above subtitle is completely tongue-in-cheek. Do any of you belong to traditions which hold Mother's Day high and lofty as a church holiday? How do you handle the challenge of Mother's Day expectations? I have been thinking about the British tradition of Mothering Day, which sounds to me a little more inclusive than our tradition here in the states. "Mother" means something rather specific. Mothering, on the other hand, may be done by just about anyone.
I may touch on mothering in my sermon for this week. How I will do that, I'm not sure, since the lectionary for this week doesn't give us much to work with in that regard.
What about you?
