Day Of Rest.

Court recognises Sunday as Christian rest day

Watch our short news report on the judgment (2m 5s) >

The Court of Appeal issued a judgment this week in the case of children's worker, Celestina Mba. Importantly, it gives legal recognition to the fact that Sunday is a day of worship and rest for many Christians and so is, in principle, worthy of protection.

Positive development 

This is a very positive step because the Court dismissed earlier rulings in the case that claimed that Sunday 'is not a core component of the Christian faith'. Christian Concern.
