Valentine's Day for me

My family after being baptized and taking communion for the first time. :) 
Valentine's Day is the anniversary of when my family and I were baptized and chrismated into the Orthodox Church. It was Forgiveness Sunday and the beginning of lent as well. It was overwhelming and incredible.

This year is the 7th anniversary and I have grown in my faith and my understanding of the church. What I most love is how my participation on the liturgy and life of the church has grown.

The blessing of the waters for baptism
I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine's day and celebrate those you love.
