Father’s Day Memories
Exodus 20:12: “Honour your father and mother that you may have a long, good life in the land your God has given you.”
In today’s Chronicle Herald, thanks to The Associated Press and Editor John Rogers, I read that Father’s Day was founded by a woman named Sonora Smart Dodd. She wanted to honour her father, and all fathers everywhere, and so campaigned to have a day designated to do so. The first day in celebration of fathers was Sunday, June 18th, 2017. This year, 2017, is the 107th year celebrating Father’s Day.
