Happy Cyril and Methodius!


So most of the modern world celebrates the Feast of St Valentine, and doing so in the traditional manner of exchanging signs of affection, flowers, chocolates and the like, the Church, in the modern calendar celebrates the Feast of Ss Cyril and Methodius.

It was one of the liturgical changes which was meant to be 'pastoral' and to make the Church's liturgy more 'relevant.' Failure, methinks?
