The modern, and some would say, commercial Father’s Day of western culture probably has it’s roots in America – introduced as a balance for the more traditional and historic event of Mothers Day. Grace Golden Clayton of West Virginia, is believed to have been inspired to celebrate fathers after a mine exploded in nearby Monongah at the turn of the century killing almost 400 men. So she decided to establish an event specifically to recognise fathers.

But, in the Roman Catholic tradition, Fathers are celebrated on Saint Joseph’s Day, commonly called the Feast of Saint Joseph, on March 19. Joseph was the father of Jesua and San José is the patron of the Catholic church.

In the Anglican world however, it is June that is most commonly reserved for the occasion.

In early times, flowers were worn to celebrate Father’s Day. Today, it is more common to give a present. And this Father’s Day could be an opportunity to gift your father (or grandfather) a more meaningful present – a gift with real significance.

Would your father appreciate a special present with real meaning this Father’s Day?

Send your Dad a special and meaningful present this Fathers Day and make him feel more loved and appreciated.

Way of Saint James information:

The Way of St. James criss-crosses Western Europe, arriving at Santiago through Northern Spain. It is generally regarded as a journey of the body, mind and spirit. Modern pilgrims choose to do the Camino for personal, spiritual and/or religious reasons - or simply to take time out from their busy, modern lives. For many, the walk is to find inspiration - improving their outlook on life, bringing them into closer contact with nature and expanding their cultural horizons through contact with other pilgrims. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.



Do you know someone who could do with some belief and safeguarding as they embark on new ventures or set off on a trip / journey? Show them that you care and that you are thinking of them with this symbolic Camino bracelet. Comes gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
