Are there any records or rumors of the miracles he performed while he was alive? That would be interesting to learn.
I love you St. Patrick! Please pray for me and watch over me and help guide me!
Or better yet, pray to God. He can protect us from the snakes and the pagans and more. After all, St. Patrick would nhave not bothered with the snakes (animals) seeing as he was fighting against the druids and there believes. And agree with Elaine, the numbers of dates and ages do not add up. We have to becareful not to turn a wonderful man of God into a god of man and a add myths as facts to history.
Interesting and learning information.
Let us pary for piece in the world through him.
:O I'm Hungary 4 turkey!
I just want to let you know that the numbers don't ad up. If St. Patrick went to Ireland in 433 and died in 461, he couldn't have preached there for 40 years. It totals 28 actually. You may want to make a correction there. I appreciate being able to find this information on-line though. Thank You.
Pity this site claims St Patrick was born in Scotland and the Daily Roman Missal claims him to be born in Great Britain. What I found interesting is either way you look at it he was not Irish born.
How great it would be if we should all have the teaching power found in this great saint?
God Bless All.
totally worth of seaching St. patrick day
St. Patrick driving the snakes out of Ireland has nothing to do with the animal. The symbol of the Druids is the snake. St. Patrick stopped paganism by driving the Druids out of Ireland and establishing Christianity there. If anyone is afraid of snakes and wants to pray to St. Patrick when they see one, go for it; I wish you well. I think it would be more effective to pray to St. Patrick to help relieve the world from its present day paganism, as well as protection from all those people who will use his feast day as an excuse to drink green beer and Irish Car Bombs and then try to drive home! Have a safe day today!!
totally worth of seaching St. patrick day
Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
Dear St Patrick,
Thank You for inspiring my parents in keeping your name on my birthday this day.....I pray you guide and bless me through my sojourn in my sordid life
Greetings
I am proud to be Irish this day but even prouder to be a Catholic. A man taken as a slave only to return and change an entire country through the words of The Lord. Is there anything as beautiful and profound as tales such as this? St Patrick, pray for me that I might have the means to return home. Amen

This is huge !!!
happy Feast day all.
I pray that more souls shall be brought to Christ through us. Amen.
Saint Patrick, pray for us.
Thank you! I'm an English teacher in Seoul presenting a brief lesson on St. Patrick's Day to my students. This is SO helpful!
Cheers to Dayna baby and and her grandpa for talking to us about St.Patricks day. If not, I would have missed remembering this great saint today.
oddly enough, while St. Patrick brought Christ to Ireland from Scotland, about 200 or so years later, Scotland had lost much of the faith, and it was brought back to Scotland by and Irishman who we now know as St. Columba.
St. Patrick is one of my favorite saints because of his perseverence and patience with the pagens. I also like the association of the tree leaf clover and the Holy Trinity. It helped me when I was little to understand the three in one consept and also helped me explain it to my sisters. It is one of the easiest ways to explain it. St. Patrick, Pray for us!!!!!!!!!!! Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody!!!!! Be sure to dye your milk green!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love St. patrick. so much because he is awesome
