Harvest : Welcome to Harvest Child Care Ministries Valentine’s Day—the holiday of love! Each year men and women search for a special way to show their love for their “Valentine”. Children exchange cards and gifts as a way of expressing friendship. Did you know that Valentine’s Day was originally a religious celebration? In the 200’s the Roman Emperor Claudius II persecuted the church. One of his persecutions was a law that prevented young people from getting married. He believed that marriage enticed young men to become weak soldiers. Early Christian priest, Valentine, was highly respected and loved by the children. He disobeyed the King’s orders and performed secret weddings. When he was caught, he was thrown in jail. The children missed him and tossed loving notes between the bars of Valentine’s cell window. He was later beaten and beheaded. Valentine’s Day began as a physical way to show someone you cared for them.
