Happy St. Patrick's day.

Don't forget who St. patrick is:

Saint Patrick was born about 385 in Scotland. His parents, Calpurnius and Conchessa, were Catholic Romans living in Britain in charge of the colonies. This might even make Saint Patrick an Italian.

At the age of fourteen, raiders captured Patrick and took him as a slave to Ireland, a land of Druids and pagans. Patrick learned the Irish language and customs.

While a slave, Patrick's faith in God grew and he wrote

"The love of God and his fear grew in me more and more, as did the faith, and my soul was raised, so that, in a single day, I have said as many as a hundred prayers and in the night, nearly the same." "I prayed in the woods and on the mountain, even before dawn. I felt no hurt from the snow or ice or rain."

When Patrick was twenty, he had a dream in which God told him to leave Ireland by going to the coast. He escaped and found a boat that took him back to Britain and his family.

Later Patrick dreamed that Irish were calling, "We beg you, holy youth, to come and walk among us once more."

Patrick studied, became a priest, and, later, a bishop. In 433, he went to take the Gospel to Ireland.

Patrick preached the Gospel throughout Ireland, converted thousands, and began building churches.

Patrick is famous for using the shamrock (a three-leaf clover) to explain the Trinity.

Patrick preached for 40 years and died on March 17, 461 at Saul, where he had built the first church.

Patrick's feast day is March 17 and he is the patron saint of Ireland.

With love in Christ.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

The Gujarati Story of Valentine's Day.

(GUJARAT IS A STATE IN WESTERN INDIA)

In spite of what you have been told by everyone, the truth is that

Valentine's Day originated hundreds of years ago, in India, and to top it

all, in Gujarat!!

It is a well known fact that Gujarati men, specially the Patels,

continually mistreat and disrespect their wives (Patelianis). One fine

day, it happened to be the 14th day of February, one brave Pateliani,

having had enough "torture" by her husband, finally chose to rebel by

beating him up with a Velan (rolling pin).

Yes....the same Velan which she used daily, to make chapattis for

him....only this time, instead of the dough, it was the husband who was

flattened.

This was a momentous occasion for all Gujarati women and a revolt soon spread, like wild fire, with thousands of housewives beating up their husbands with the Velan.

There was an outburst of moaning "chapatti-ed" husbands all over Anand and Amdavad (both small villages then). The Patel men-folk quickly learnt their lesson and started to behave more respectfully with their Patelianis.

Thereafter, on 14th February, every year, the womenfolk of Gujarat would beat up their husbands, to commemorate that eventful day.The wives having the satisfaction of beating up their husbands with the Velan and the men having the supreme joy of submitting to the will of the women they loved.

Soon The Gujju men realized that in order to avoid this ordeal they need to present gifts to their wives....they brought flowers and sweetmeats.

Hence the tradition began.

As Gujarat fell under the influence of Western culture, that day was

called 'Velan time' day. The ritual soon spread to Britain and many other Western countries, specifically, the catch words 'Velan time!'. Of course in their foreign tongues, it was first anglicized to 'Velantime' and then to 'Valentine'.

And thereafter, 14th of February, came to be known as Valentine's Day!
