Mothering Sunday

for 1 hour
St Oswald Church and Community Centre
Ronald Ross Avenue Netherton, L30 5RD, United Kingdom

Please join us for our special Mothering Sunday service which always takes place on the fourth Sunday of Lent. The service dates back hundreds of years when traditionally it was a day when children, mainly daughters, who had gone to work as domestic servants were given a day off to visit their mother and family and to return to their home or ‘mother’ church. 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. A small posy of daffodils will be presented to members of the congregation. We are aware of those for whom Mothering Sunday is a painful time and include them in our prayers.

St Oswald Church and Community Centre

St Oswald's is a Church of England Church on the outskirts of Liverpool, in Netherton. It is 1 of the 2 churches, St. Helen's Church in Sefton village being the other, in the Team Ministry of Netherton and Sefton.

We're a busy church with lots of community activities and groups, as well as close links to St Oswald's C. of E. Primary School next door to the church.

We believe that there is a God with whom we can have a relationship through his Son Jesus Christ, and that God is active in the world today by the Holy Spirit. We're seeking both to grow in our relationship with God and to join in with the work of the Spirit. Our strapline is... 'sharing the warmth of God's love with all people,' and we want to make a real difference to the community of Netherton in which we are based.
