Downpatrick, Northern Ireland…March 17, St. Patrick’s Day is traditionally recognized as the day of his death. He was a fifth century missionary, bishop & Patron Saint of Ireland.

“I am Patrick, a sinner, most uncultivated and least of all the faithful and despised in the eyes of many.”

“I have a Creator who knew all things, even before they were made – even me, his poor little child.”

“He who believes shall be saved, but he who does not believe shall be damned. God has spoken.”
