A brief introduction to the origin of Father's Day

We know that there is Father's Day every year, but do you know the origin of Father's Day? Let's study together! The following is a brief introduction of the origin of Father's Day compiled by me for your reference only. Welcome to reading.

A brief introduction to the origin of Father's Day

The third Sunday in June is Father's Day. Compared with Mother's Day, Father's Day is a relatively unfamiliar festival, which was initiated by Mrs. Dodd in Spokane, Washington, USA on 19 10.

The origin of Father's Day in China can be traced back to the national era. On August 8, 1934, Wen Ren College held a celebration of Father's Day. The citizens responded immediately and held a warm celebration. After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, celebrities and gentry from all walks of life in Shanghai jointly requested the Shanghai Municipal Government to convey it to the central government, and designated August 8th as the National Father's Day.

Although celebrating Father's Day today is not as important and lively as Mother's Day, God teaches us to care about our parents in the Bible. When our mother takes great pains to take care of us, our father is also trying to play the gentle role given to him by God. Perhaps when we are trying to think about what kind of gift to buy for our father on Father's Day, we might as well reflect on whether we love our father, because he has selflessly dedicated his life to us.

The origin of father's day

The first statement:

The first Father's Day in the world was born in the United States in 19 10.

Mrs. Dodd (1909) lives in Spokane, Washington, USA. After attending the Sunday worship of Mother's Day held by the church, Mrs. Dodd had a deep feeling in his heart. She thought to herself, "Why isn't there a festival in memory of her father?"

Mrs. Dodd's mother died when she was thirteen, leaving six children. Mrs. Dodd's father, Mr William smart, raised six children on a rural farm in eastern Washington, USA. Mr smart took part in the American civil war, and his achievements were shown off. After his wife died, he decided not to have a second wife and took care of his six children wholeheartedly.

The second child, Mrs. Dodd, is the only girl in the family. A woman's meticulous nature makes her more aware of her father's hard work. Mr. Smart works hard during the day and takes care of the housework and the life of every child when he comes home at night. After decades of hard work, the children finally grew up. Just as the children were looking forward to letting Mr. Smart enjoy his old age, Mr. Smart fell ill and died because of years of overwork.

1909 This year happened to be the year when Mr. Smar died. When Mrs. Dodd attended the Mother's Day Thanksgiving service in the church, she especially missed her father. Only then did Mrs. Dodd realize that in the process of raising children, her father's love and efforts were no less than any mother's.

Mrs. Dodd told Pastor Rasmus about her feelings, hoping to have a special day to pay tribute to the great Mr. Smart and commemorate the great father in the world.

After listening to Mr Smart's story, Pastor remus was deeply moved by Mr Smart's spirit and love. He praised and supported Mrs. Dodd's efforts to promote Father's Day. So Mrs. Dodd began to promote the establishment of Father's Day in the spring of 19 10, and soon got the support of various church organizations; She immediately wrote to the mayor and the state government to express her thoughts and suggestions. Thanks to Mrs. Dodd's efforts, the mayor of Spokane and governor of washington publicly agreed, so Washington held the world's first Father's Day party on June 19 19.

1924, US President johncalvin coolidge supported Father's Day as a national holiday. 1966, President Zhan Sen declared the third Sunday in June of that year, that is, Mr. Smart's birthday month, as American Father's Day. 1972, US President Richard Nixon signed an official document, which designated the third Sunday in June as the National Father's Day and became a permanent national memorial day in the United States. xzhufu

The second statement:

The idea of a day to commemorate mother was first put forward in the United States in 1907. Two years later, a woman in Washington State, Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, suggested that there should be a day similar to Mother's Day to pay tribute to her father. Mrs. Dodd lost her mother when she was young and was brought up by her father. She loves her father very much.

In the same year that Mrs Dodd put forward her idea (1909), the governor of Washington responded by declaring the third Sunday in June as Father's Day. This idea was officially approved by President Wood Wilson in 19 16. 1924, President John Calvin Coolidge suggested making Father's Day a national holiday, so as to "establish a closer relationship between fathers and children and remind fathers of all their responsibilities". Red roses or white roses are considered as Father's Day flowers.

Father's Day is established as a holiday throughout the United States, which is longer than Mother's Day. Because the idea of establishing Father's Day is very popular, businessmen and manufacturers are beginning to see business opportunities. They not only encourage children to send greeting cards to their fathers, but also encourage them to buy small gifts such as ties and socks to show their respect for their fathers.

During World War II, American soldiers stationed in Britain asked to send Father's Day cards back to China. The American soldier's request was answered by the British greeting card publisher, and the greeting card was printed. Although the British public's acceptance of this artificial festival has been low, today, Father's Day is also celebrated on the third Sunday in June in Britain, which is similar to the way in the United States.

Father's Day seems far less important than Mother's Day. No children give gifts to their fathers. However, American fathers still think their fate is much stronger than that of fathers in many other countries, because fathers in those countries don't even have a nominal holiday.
