St. Valentine’s Day was removed from the Church calendar in 1969

The feast was removed from the liturgical calendar, that doesn’t mean his feast was suppressed, only that it was removed from the mass cycle. Many saints are not represented on the calendar, but their feast day still exists, and can still be celebrated outside the Mass, and inside the mass as a commemoration.

Thanks for your kind comments. They're always appreciated (and encouraged). :) Jason,

Good post.
