Members of Our Redeemer in Longview, Texas, celebrate the children of their congregation on Valentine's Day with small gifts. There was a breakfast following the first worship service - always a good idea. Earlier in the month each child's name was placed on a tree. Adults, not their parents, chose a child to celebrate on Valentine's Day. I have a photo of the "tree," now bare, but earlier in the morning it had gifts dressing up the base. This was a wonderful event for grandparents who are far from their grandchildren; and children who were delighted to fill in.
