Happy St. Valentine's Day Tremendous Preschool Parents!
The story goes that Fr. Valentine lived during a time in which Christians were being prosecuted for their faith. Regardless of this danger, Fr. Valentine and his faithful friends continued to feed and clothe the poor and bring Jesus and His word to many . Unfortunately, someone turned Fr. Valentine into the officials and thus he was jailed. Instead of being angry and sad, Fr. Valentine prayed continuously for those who he helped and those who helped him with the corporal works of mercy. After prayer one day, Fr. Valentine decided to send little notes to his friends telling them how much Jesus loves them and giving them words of hope. Seeing the pigeons that sat on his windows, Fr. Valentine trained them to be homing pigeons. He then wrapped his little notes in string and tied them to the pigeons necks and had them deliver them to each of his friends. This is why we send notes or cards of love and encouragement to those around us that mean so much on February 14th, his feast day!
Happy St. Valentines Day! God's blessing upon all of you this beautiful day;)
