All in Lenten Season
Historically, the fourth Sunday of lent have been called a day of mothering in which the custom in United Kingdom have been for adult children to travel home to share time with their mothers as if it were a Mother's Day celebration. Children would bring home with them what people called simnel cake . . .
Lent has been observed in commemoration of Christ's 40 days of fasting as a special season of penitence in preparation for the Easter feast
