I like Tamara’s post today so much that I am going to post it on my blog too! We have had a busy and fun Valentine’s day, I hoped to have time to post some pictures later. We started the school day at Jonah’s nursery school party and ended it at Basil’s school party and in between we had lunch with our friends.
Now for Tamara’s post about the woman at the well, St. Photini.
The Rest of The Story
Some things, I just never knew and never knew I could know. Now that I’m learning what I never knew was possible to know, I’m just amazed.
The life of St. Photini, the Woman at the Well Who knew she had a name? That’s not really the right question, is it, because of course she had a name. But who knew anybody actually remembered her name? Guess who remembers? The Orthodox Church remembers.
And especially important for today, the real reason we celebrate St. Valentine’s Day. It’s not just about giving Hallmark more money for their fluffy and glitzy cards of red and pink. Thanks, Beth, for the link.

I’m glad you had a good holiday and I agree with you and Tamara, it’s so neat to have the “rest of the story” in Orthodoxy.
