St.Patrick's Day [March.17] is an Irish holiday celebrated all around the globe to honour the patron saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick. In Ireland on St. Patrick's Day, people traditionally wear a small bunch of shamrocks on their jackets or caps. Children wear orange, white and green badges, and women and girls wear green ribbons in their hair. Several parades are held throughout Ireland, Canada, and many other countries to celebrate this day.
~*~
St. Patrick was born in 385 AD somewhere along the west coast of Britain, possibly in the Welsh town of Banwen.
At age 16, he was captured and sold into slavery to a sheep farmer. He escaped when he was 22 and spent the next 12 years in a monastery.
In his 30s he returned to Ireland as a Christian missionary. He died at Saul in 461 AD and is buried at Downpatrick.
And blah blah blah. 😊

Happy St. Patrick's day to all of you !!! 😃

Mimi , nice drawing !!! 🤣


Saint Patrick was a Romanized-Celt.
In countries around the world (including the US, Argentina, and Australia, just to name a few), you can see people, restaurants and even whole city streets decked out in green and in the mood to party.
Originally the colour associated with Saint Patrick was blue. However, over the years the colour green and its association with Saint Patrick's day grew.[2] Green ribbons and shamrocks were worn in celebration of St Patrick's Day as early as the 17th century.[3] He is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pre-Christian Irish, and the wearing and display of shamrocks and shamrock-inspired designs have become a ubiquitous feature of the day.[4][5] Then in the 1798 rebellion in hopes of making a political statement Irish soldiers wore full green uniforms on 17 March in hopes of catching attention with their unusual fashion gimmick.[2] The phrase "the wearing of the green", meaning to wear a shamrock on one's clothing, derives from the song of the same name.

Why a shamrock?

Patrick used the shamrock to explain the Trinity, and has been associated with him and the Irish since that time.

In His Footsteps:

Patrick was a humble, pious, gentle man, whose love and total devotion to and trust in God should be a shining example to each of us. He feared nothing, not even death, so complete was his trust in God, and of the importance of his mission.
