As far as I know, Mother's Day is a special Sunday dedicated to all mothers introduced by the Americans in early 20th century. And it is later adapted here in the Philippines. It is usually observed every Second Sunday of the month of May.
To recognize mothers in the Church, the La Carlota first branch of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints led by its branch president Jimboy Loreto humbly honored all the member-mothers before the Sunday School classes has started.
Fathers Honoring the Mothers
All fathers and some priesthood holders have formed their line outside the Sunday School classroom with a bunch of beautiful flowers tucked at the back of their trousers. Then, they entered the room one by one, formed a single pile in front of the blackboard. After President Loreto shared a brief message on the importance of a mother and while the members are singing "As I Have Loved You", the fathers proceeded to their respective wife and handed her the flower with a kiss, warm handshake as a humble way of expressing their gratefulness of their wife's love and care for him and for their children.
