Mothering Sunday

In more penitential times, the fourth Sunday in Lent was traditionally a time of respite and relaxation from the broader season. Known as “Mothering Sunday” or “Refreshment Sunday,” at St. Paul’s we observe the occasion by offering special flowers for the mothers and mother figures in our lives.

As we hold our mother figures in our hearts, we give thanks for the following special offerings given in our community:

John Cass, in honor of Helen & Clay
Jane Cloutier, in honor of her mother, Jane
Patty Dos Anjos, in honor of Mary Belton
Bob & Tracey Duff, in honor of Bill & Mary Krause
Dulany Foster, in honor of Betty Ann Foster
Joseph & Louise Kalemkerian, in honor of Arsha Kalemkerian, Bettye Yeghissian
Erika Kitano, in honor of Florence Temko
Brad McKinney, in honor of Alice McKinney
Brian & Jane Pender, in honor of Jean Impy and Mary Pender
Alvin Sample Jr., in honor of Alden Whitney
Jackie Stephens, in honor of Mum, Teresa, Carolyn, & Loraine
