I never really cared about our heritage until I came back to the faith as an adult, and I made the effort to learn a little more about St. Patrick. Since having a family, I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to read them a children’s book about his life as part of their education about the origin of this holiday. Your reflection brought a smile to my face. God bless.

Today we can all be a little Irish and perhaps a little closer to Christ. May God Bless all of us.
