Every February 14, Valentine’s day occurs. Across the United States and including the world, flowers, candy, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all honoring the name of St. Valentine.

The history of Valentine’s day is still quite a mystery. Going back in time, February has always been celebrated as a time of romance. Today, as we know it, Valentine’s day is a mixed mode of Christian and ancient Roman traditions. The Catholic Church recalls three different saints either named Valentine or Valentinus. One legend states that during the third century in Rome, Valentine was a priest who performed marriages for young couples in secret. When his actions were discovered he was put to death. Others say Valentine got caught helping Christians escape harsh prisons. Whoever he was, we were gifted this day to celebrate.
