Savannah used to have the second largest St. Patricks Day celebration in the US. I know it was crazy when I lived there. I heard they moved the parade back to last week though.

St. Patrick's Day is so much more than just parties or wearing green..! :)

Patrick was a very special man of God. He used the clover, something sacred to the pagans who lived in Ireland, to demonstrate the truth of the Trinity. Though he had spent 7 years of his years of his young life as a slave in Ireland, having been kidnapped from his homeland of England, Patrick escaped by God's direction and later returned to Ireland as a missionary in obedience to God. Ireland was impacted and changed by his evangelistic work. Through the miracles, signs and wonders that God performed in and through Patrick, many pagans were made believers of the True and Living God. So I give thanks to God every year for such a testimony of a great man of God.

My nine-year old is named Patrick, and I truly believe he has a very special destiny in the Lord as well.

For those of you that don't live in RCC (Catholic) areas of the country, Protestants are supposed to wear Orange on St. Patrick's Day! Catholics wear green and we that are out of their "boat" wear orange!

Moody ran an interesting show last year about St. Pat’s Day. It gave the history of St. Patrick and then challenged Christians to go out and evangelize like he did! Instead of drinking green beer and partying we could be inviting people to the eternal party in Heaven with our Savior.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Happy Maewyn Succat Day!

The story of Maewyn Succat as told by Veggie Tales.

It's worth the 8 1/2 minutes (even if you don't have kiddos!)! :)

Thanks A2JGirl, I haven't never seen that before. As a matter of fact i haven't never heard the story about how St Patrick's day came about. Jennifer said she has a book about it and it is really good.

We love the Maewyn Succat short! I love the film about St. Patrick too, it is one of my favorites. We will probably watch it again this weekend.

Since, today is St. Paddy's Day can I drink some Guinness and Green Beer? :)

Actually forgot it was St. Patrick's day until I was listening to the radio and the talk radio hosts were drinking Guinness.
