There are several legends about Saint Valentine and most especially that there were three who all shared February 14th as their feast day. Each lived around 250 A.D. While they shared a great love of Jesus, legend has it that one performed weddings in secret for soldiers who were forbidden to marry. Thus the feast day connection to love, young people and happy marriages.
Love and affection from the,
Benedictine Sisters of Florida
