Bertrand Stevens, Dean and Mrs. Perry G. M. Austin, David Todd Gilmore, Arnold G. H. Bode, Charles E. Maimann and D. Howard Dow, all former rectors of St. Michael's, and their wives.

More than 1,000 years ago, the Nahuan Indians of Mexico were holding flower festivals for the Earth Mother-Goddess, Chicomehuatl. Seventeenth century England developed the custom of "going a mothering." Boy and girl apprentices were allowed to spend "Mother Sunday" with their families. They often brought cakes and plum puddings as gifts. Our American Mother's Day is credited to Miss Anna M. Jarvis, a Sunday School teacher. In 1908 she held a memorial church service for her mother at the Andrews Methodist church in Grafton, West Virginia. The idea spread first to Philadelphia and then caught on nationally. President Wilson in 1914 signed a Congressional resolution setting aside the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day and authorizing Federal display of the flag. The carnation was adopted as official flower because it had been 'HOLIDAYS IN A FLORAL THEME OF ST. AGNES' Flowers bright and flowers bridge party of St. Agnes Guild entertained at Ebell clubhouse, "Holidays in a Florist Shop."

Records of this first year are in an illustrated booklet available to guests on the evening of the banquet. Also to be shown are exhibits of old church pictures and records. The first Episcopal service here was held August 24 of that year. Mother’s Day—Then and Now Mother’s Day will be observed on Sunday, May 9, as a national symbol of love and reverence for the mothers of the nation. Only two countries—the United States and Canada—set aside a day annually to honor mother. And although Mother’s Day is officially only 34 years old, it stems from a tradition of homage to mothers that stretches back into the dim past. Centuries before Christ, mothers were held in awe and reverence by Chinese families. The ancient Romans celebrated an annual memorial church service for her mother at the Andrews Methodist church in Grafton, West Virginia. The idea spread first to Philadelphia and then caught on nationally. President Wilson in 1914 signed a Congressional resolution setting aside the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day and authorizing Federal display of the flag. The carnation was adopted as official flower because it had been the favorite of Miss Jarvis’ mother. Today, the event has grown into the year’s “most sentimental occasion,” when sons and daughters everywhere express their appreciation with gifts and Mother’s Day greeting cards.
