As far as we can tell, choirs and choral societies have long been part of the Carmelite Church, Whitefriar St. Although we cannot be certain that they go back as far as 1829, around the time when the present church was built, we do know that this current professional choir was formed in 2003 and has been performing regularly ever since. Among the many recitals and performances by the choir, the Christmas Carol Service has been a favourite of the public and a highlight for the choir and soloists alike. One if the reasons for the making of this recording is because of the huge support the public have shown this Carol Service, year in year out, come hail, rain or snow! This CD is a celebration of that and of the continued commitment of the choir to keep music alive in the hearts and souls of the community, and what better place to do that than in the resting place of St. Valentine. We hope we have captured some of the spirit that is the Carmelite Church, and that you enjoy this recording as much as we enjoy performing the Whitefriar Street Christmas Carol Service.

Irish Saint Valentine's statue hears lovers' wishes
he remains of the original Saint Valentine, patron saint of lovers, have been kept in the Carmelite Whitefriars Street church in Dublin since the early 19th century, when a charismatic Irish priest brought them back from Rome as a gift from the pope. They then fell into oblivion until the 1950s when the church erected a statue and a shrine where Dubliners and visitors seek the saint's assistance for their love life.Duration: 01:57
Historic Central Dublin - Dublin, Ireland
Dublin, the capital of the Irish Republic, has a compact, walkable city center and is home to a number of site closely connected to the city's 1000+ year history.
The Photos (in order)
E10A4113 - Dublin Castle has been the site of the English and British government seats in Ireland before Irish independence; today it house a number of offices for the Irish government
E10A4088 - Christ Church Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, is one of two medieval cathedrals in Dublin; it was founded about 1000 years ago, although the oldest parts of the current church date back to the 12th century

E10A4229 - The Temple Bar district is home to a number of pubs and restarants, including this one named the Temple Bar Pub; the neighborhood has a centuries-long and sometimes unsavory history, but it was redevloped as a cultural center in the 1980s and now is a popular destination
E10A4240 - The Ha'penny Bridge (officially the Liffey Bridge) crosses the River Liffey in the heart of Dublin; this pedestrian bridge was built as an alternative to a ferry system in the early 1800s, and a half pence toll was charged for several years
E10A4301 - This sculpture of Molly Malone, the central figure in a popular song about a fishmonger who worked the streets of Dublin; the sculpture was designed by Jeanne Ryhart and was installed to commemorate Dublin's 1000 year anniversary in 1988

Dublin's Oldest Parish: A Witness to History
Currents news' Michelle Powers reports from a Dublin parish that's seen much of the church's history.
Valentine special dance 2018||Akumslomo
Valentine's Day, also called Saint Valentine's Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine , [1] is celebrated annually on February 14. Originating as a Western
Christian feast day honoring one or more early saints named Valentinus, Valentine's Day is recognized as a significant cultural, religious, and commercial celebration of romance in many regions around the world, although it is not a public holiday in any country.
Martyrdom stories associated with various Valentines connected to February 14 are presented in
martyrologies, [2] including a written account of Saint Valentine of Rome 's imprisonment for performing weddings for soldiers, who were forbidden to marry, and for ministering to Christians
persecuted under the Roman Empire. [3] According to legend, during his imprisonment Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his judge, [4] and before his execution he wrote her a letter signed Your Valentine as a farewell. [5]
The day first became associated with
romantic love within the circle of
Geoffrey Chaucer in the 14th century, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. In 18th-century England, it evolved into an occasion in which
lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering
confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as valentines ). In Europe, Saint Valentine's Keys are given to lovers as a romantic symbol and an invitation to unlock the giver’s heart, as well as to children, in order to ward off epilepsy (called Saint Valentine's Malady). [6] Valentine's Day symbols that are used today include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards. [7]
Saint Valentine's Day is an official feast day in the Anglican Communion[8] and the Lutheran Church. [9] Many parts of the Eastern Orthodox Church also celebrate Saint Valentine's Day, albeit on July 6 and July 30 , the former date in honor of the Roman presbyter Saint Valentine, and the latter date in honor of Hieromartyr Valentine, the Bishop of Interamna (modern Terni).[10]

History
Shrine of St. Valentine in
Whitefriar Street Carmelite Church in Dublin, Ireland
Numerous early Christian martyrs were named Valentine .[11] The Valentines honored on February 14 are Valentine of Rome (Valentinus presb. m. Romae ) and Valentine of Terni (Valentinus ep. Interamnensis m. Romae ).[12] Valentine of Rome was a priest in Rome who was martyred in 269 and was added to the calendar of saints by Pope Galesius in 496 and was buried on the Via Flaminia. The relics of Saint Valentine were kept in the Church and Catacombs of San Valentino in Rome, which remained an important pilgrim site throughout the Middle Ages until the relics of St. Valentine were transferred to the church of Santa Prassede during the pontificate of
Nicholas IV. [13][14] The flower-crowned skull of Saint Valentine is exhibited in the Basilica of Santa Maria in Cosmedin , Rome. Other relics are found at Whitefriar Street Carmelite Church in Dublin, Ireland. [15]
Valentine of Terni became bishop of Interamna (modern Terni) and is said to have been martyred during the persecution under Emperor Aurelian in 273. He is buried on the Via Flaminia, but in a different location from Valentine of Rome. His relics are at the Basilica of Saint Valentine in Terni (Basilica di San Valentino). Jack B. Oruch states that abstracts of the acts of the two saints were in nearly every church and monastery of Europe. [16] The Catholic Encyclopedia also speaks of a third saint named Valentine who was mentioned in early martyrologies under date of February 14. He was martyred in Africa with a number of companions, but nothing more is known about him.[17] Saint Valentine's head was preserved in the abbey of
New Minster, Winchester, and venerated. [18]
February 14 is celebrated as St. Valentine's Day in various Christian denominations; it has, for example, the rank of 'commemoration' in the
calendar of saints in the Anglican Communion. [8] In addition, the feast day of Saint Valentine is also given in the calendar of saints of the Lutheran Church .[9] However, in the 1969 revision of the Roman Catholic Calendar of Saints , the feast day of Saint Valentine on February 14 was
removed from the General Roman Calendar and relegated to particular (local or even national) calenders
