Some facts about St Patrick:
According to legend Patrick drove all the snakes out of Ireland,
however snakes are the symbol of Paganism,
Patrick rid Ireland of Pagans.
The Book of Armagh included a note directing all monasteries
and churches in Ireland to honour the memory of the saint
by 'the celebration, during three days and
three nights in mid-spring.
Patrick was called to Rome in 432 whereupon
Pope Celestine bequeathed the honour of
Bishop upon him before he left on his holy mission to Ireland
The veneration in which the Irish have held St Patrick
is evidenced by the salutation, still common today,
'May God, Mary and Patrick bless you'.
Homage to Patrick as Ireland’s saint was apparent
in the eight century AD. At this time Patrick's status
of national apostle was made independently of Rome.
Patrick was claimed locally as a saint before
the practice of canonisation was introduced by the Vatican
