I have recently been reading through Ageing’s price has been exacted, the WDP magazine Together in Prayer, which gives fascinating glimpses Hope extinguished, love gone by. into the islands and the life of the Christian churches. As I read, I came across this paragraph about the work of early pioneer missionaries there.

It can be a role we love best, or one that causes us great insecurity. There is no formal training for parenthood. There are no clear benchmarks of success and yet it demands all our resources, skills and attention. This book is the merging of the author’s deep convictions of parenting with examples of both “When it worked” and “When it did not work”. He has also elicited the help of his sons to write their perspectives on how their experiences and memories connect (or differ from) his own. This book will share stories of parenting success, but is honest about the times of failure, too.

Mothering Sunday is celebrated on the fourth Sunday in Lent—14th March this year. Traditionally it is a day when we thank God for the love of our mothers, and we thank them in person for their care for us. In the UK, the service dates back hundreds of years to the time when people were encouraged once a year, on Laetare Sunday, to return to their home or ‘mother’ church or cathedral. In Latin, the first words of the prayer for this Sunday were ‘Laetare, O Jerusalem’ (‘Rejoice, O Jerusalem’) taken from Isaiah 66.10, and the prayer spoke of the love for more vulnerable to criminal exploitation and online Jerusalem—the original ‘mother church’. grooming.
