Saying Thank you to Mum..with pebbles.
Mums everywhere will be celebrated at a special Mothering Sunday service at Wakefield Cathedral this Sunday.
Pebbles will be available for families to write on the name of their mum or one who has cared and nurtured them and these will then be gathered together in a fishing net around the font and prayed for and celebrated.
Wakefield Cathedral sub dean, Canon Tony Macpherson, said: “Mums are our unsung heroes and on this, their special day, we invite people to come together to remember and celebrate all those who have cared for us and nurtured us through our lives.
“The service is about saying thank you to all those mums, not just the ones we can send a card to now, but those who have died too,” he added.
