From the Office of Fr. Andrew

Valentine’s Day, celebrated annually on February 14th (Saturday in 2026), is a global holiday dedicated to expressing love and affection through exchanging cards, flowers, candy, and gifts. Rooted in early Christian traditions honoring St. Valentine and ancient Roman festivals, it has evolved into a popular occasion for romantic gestures, marriage proposals, and celebrating friendship.

Ash Wednesday - February 18 - Blessing and Distribution of Ashes

Ash Wednesday marks the start of the 40-day Lenten season for Catholics, representing a time of repentance, fasting, and preparation for Easter. It is a day to reflect on human mortality and sinfulness, with ashes (from the previous year's palms) applied to the forehead as a sign of penance and mourning.

The Ashes: Symbolize repentance, grief for sins, and mortality, accompanied by the phrase, “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return but your soul returns to God,” or “Repent and believe in the Gospel”.
Fasting and Abstinence: It is a mandatory day of fasting (one full meal, two smaller meals) and abstinence from meat for Catholics aged 14 and older
.
Purpose: It begins a period of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving to prepare for the Resurrection of Jesus at Easter.
Not a Holy Day of Obligation: While not required by canon law to attend Mass, it is strongly encouraged, and receiving ashes is a widely practiced tradition to start the penitential season.

The ashes are typically applied in the shape of a cross, symbolizing that although believers are mortal, they are also redeemed by Christ's sacrifice.
