I hope everyone has an amazing holiday this season. So we all know who Santa is right? Some call him Saint Nicholas and this dates back hundreds of years to a monk named St. Nicholas who is said to have gave away all of his inheritance to the poor. One of St. Nicholas well known stories is that he saved three sisters from being sold into slavery by providing them with dowry so they could be married off. St. Nick’s generosity spread as he becomes known as protector of children and sailors.
December 6th was the anniversary of the death of St. Nicholas and considered to be a “lucky” day to get married or make large purchase.
