St. Martin of Tours Parish in the Bronx has a healing prayer grotto dedicated to Our Lady Undoer of Knots.

It is a Catholic devotion that has become popular in recent years, particularly due to the support of Pope Francis who has recommended it several times during this pontificate.

The parish, in collaboration with the Archdiocese’s Office for Family Life, hosted an evening of hope and healing on October 5th to underline how families can benefit from this devotion.

First pastoral visit brought the archbishop to the East Harlem school and the Franciscan Sisters.

La historia de San Valentín incluye muchas leyendas, y existen diferentes versiones sobre el origen concreto de este santo. Incluso se cree que hubo más de un Valentín. Aunque este día se celebra alrededor del mundo como el Día de los Enamorados, en 1969 se eliminó de calendario católico y se destinó ese día a la festividad de los santos Cirilo y Metodio.
