St. Valentine's Day Tea Party

Many years ago Valentine, a Christian priest, was sentenced to death and thrown in prison for his teachings.

While languishing in prison, he fell in love with the jailer's daughter who was blind. He cured her of her blindness. The night before he was executed, he wrote her a farewell letter, signing it “From Your Valentine.”

Op 14 Februarie is Valentyn onthoof.

Die tradisie om op 14 Februarie jou liefde teenoor iemand te verklaar, het na hierdie gebeurtenis in die Middeleeue in Europa veld gewen.

By ons oord sit ons in Februarie die Valentynstradisie voort deur ons vriende en geliefdes op ʼn koppie tee en versnaperinge te trakteer.

The photographs below were taken by Philip van den Berg (U34) at our St. Valentine's Day Tea Party, which was held recently.
