Valentine’s Day from a Catholic perspective is all about sharing love with those in your family and with the wider community. Fun ideas for the day include baking heart-shaped treats and sharing them with others, sending handmade scriptural Valentine’s Day cards with Bible verses about love, or creating prayers jars. To make the jars, write caring ideas on strips of paper – such as praying for each other, doing a good deed, or offering Mass or adoration for another’s intentions – and then fill a mason jar with the strips. Each day, pull one out randomly and fulfill the task. Find more recipes.
