ON THIS DAY in MISSIONARY HISTORY

17 March – Saint Patrick’s Day

St. Patrick – Missionary to Ireland

17 March is celebrated as St. Patrick’s Day worldwide.

On the last Sunday of every July, up to 30,000 pilgrims pass

Saint Patrick’s statue and climb to the top of Croagh Patrick, commemorating Patrick’s 40 day fast on that 2,710 foot summit.

The greatest legacy of Patrick was the tremendous spiritual movement he launched in Ireland and his followers who sent out missionaries to evangelise not only the rest of the British Isles, but much of the

continent of Europe.

“In mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God,

…I have fully preached the Gospel of Christ.  And so, I have made it my aim to preach the Gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man’s foundation.”

Romans 15:19 – 20
