I still remember one Valentine’s Day when my heart felt heavier than the celebration around me. Everyone was talking about love, flowers, and perfect moments, but inside, I was struggling with unanswered prayers and silent hopes.
That’s when I realized something important Valentine’s Day is not just about romance, it’s also about lifting our hearts to God together.
I handled that moment by turning to prayer, and that experience inspired me to create these Prayers for Valentine’s Day Program, so you and I can stand together in faith, share love beyond words, and invite God into every part of our relationships.
