The Life of Saint Valentine: The Saint had a reputation as a peacemaker, and one day while cultivating some roses from his garden, he heard a couple quarrel very vigorously. This shocked the Saint, who then cut a rose and approached the couple asking them to hear him. Even though they were dispirited, they obeyed the Saint and afterwards were offered a rose that blessed them. Immediately the love returned between them, and later they returned and asked the Saint to bless their marriage…

“If you knew the gift of God, you would be happy together with your empire and would reject the worship of idols and worship the true God and His Son Jesus Christ.”
“Believe in Jesus Christ, be Baptized and you will be saved, and from this time forward the glory of your empire will be ensured as well as the triumph of your armory.”

When Saint Valentine was brought before a judge named Asterios. Asterios’ young daughter was blind for two years, and listening about Jesus Christ, that He is the Light of the World, he asked Saint Valentine if he could give that light to his child. Saint Valentine put his hand on her eyes and Prayed: “Lord Jesus Christ, True Light, illuminate this blind child.” The child could then see. So the judge with all his family Confessed Christ. Having fasted for three days, he destroyed the idols that were in the house and finally received Holy Baptism.
