撫育禮拜日，致敬日一種，一年一度向母聖堂致敬[1] ，四旬期第四個禮拜日。慶祝出自中世紀英國[3]，要人記得自己原本聖堂，喺嗰處受洗，同埋變成聖堂啲細蚊仔。史上會返去母聖堂，嗰處受洗禮聖事。中世紀呢日啲人會返屋企，同亞媽同屋企人相聚，尤其去做僕人，得呢日返屋企。

開呢日有聖經根據，同新耶路撒冷有關[4]。耶路撒冷擬人做亞媽[5]。而經文中五餅二魚件事，加強大地之母同撫育禮拜日關係[6]。中世紀就轉移去本地聖堂座堂，有時甚至聖堂之間失控[7]。

回應一九一三年推動美國母視節影響[8][9]，英國基督教復興咗呢日，加多意思，同地上亞媽致敬，同耶穌亞媽童貞馬利亞致敬，同自然之母致敬。後來呢日化成俗世英國母親日，變成祝賀母親同撫育[2]。

呢日撞歡喜禮拜日，撞四旬期半禮拜日，撞慰藉禮拜日。佢啱啱喺四旬期齋戒節食中途，睇成喘息日。 出於五餅二魚故事，同埋暫緩四旬期節食，地方有唔同包食餅食，尤其幼麪粉蛋糕會送畀父母[10]。個糕同撫育禮拜日，同復活節有關[11]。

由於四旬期跟復活節定日期，而復活節按滿月定而浮動，撫育禮拜日都逐年浮動。
