From WwikipediaSaint David’s Day (Welsh: Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant or Dydd Gŵyl Dewi; Welsh pronunciation: [ˈdɨːð ˌɡuːɨ̯l ˌdɛu̯.i ˈsant, ˈdiːð ̩ɡʊi̯l ˌdɛu̯.i ˈsant]), or the Feast of Saint David, is the feast day of Saint David, the patron saint of Wales, and falls on 1 March, the date of Saint David’s death in 589 AD. The feast has been regularly celebrated since the canonisation of David in the 12th century, by Pope Callixtus II, though it is not a public holiday in the UK.
The Good News (BIBLE) says: All those who believe (Born Again Christians) in Lord Jesus Christ are SAINTS. Don’t need some little man to make em saints – We got GOD making us SAINTS. Choose wisely folks.
always good to learn new things. Just read some interesting things about St David. he plowed the fields by hand, drank water and ate leeks, and performed a miracle after asking the crowd he was preaching to if they cold hear him. when some couldn’t, the ground beneath him formed into a small hill and a dove flew down, sent by God, sat on his shoulder. DO THE LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE, a saying in Wales, is from the last sermon he preached which was DO THE LITTLE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE HEARD AND SEEN ME DO.
My sister and I visited St David’s and saw the beautiful St. David’s Cathedral. What an experience. The coastal paths are amazing, and the boat ride on the rigid inflatable was out of this world! We came to a stop—seals popping their heads out of the water all around us, staring curiously. [Happy memory sigh]

Where I live, today is Paczki Day. Yum. I’ve already have one, and I have three more in the box.

True Fact: Every single day on the Calendar has a Saint.
Some days have 3 or 4 saints because they ran out of Calendar before they ran out of Saints.
