Relick Sunday

(重定向自Relic Sunday)

Relick Sunday (or Relic Sunday) is a moveable feast in the Christian calendar celebrated in mid July on the third Sunday after Midsummer's day. The feast celebrated Christian relics of all kinds, in which offerings were given to relics.

A second usage of the term used in medieval times occurred across England, persisting most notably in Northamptonshire, when the Sunday after the feast of Saint Thomas Becket (29 December) was commonly known as Relick Sunday. This meant that it was celebrated annually between 30 December and 5 January.
