St Patrick’s Day

St. Patrick was a christian Missionary who lived during the 5th century. He was born in Great Britain, but he lived in Ireland, where he was a christian missionary. He did a lot of things like go to churches like Old Catholic church, and several other churches in Ireland. He spread Christianity throughout Ireland.

It’s purpose is to celebrate about St Patrick, who was a Saint in Ireland. It is a religious ceremony in Ireland to remember him. Although, here in America it is about clovers, and green, we don’t know what is the true reason why we celebrate it.

It is designated when it is because that was the day that Saint Patrick died. So in honor of him, it is celebrated in his death.\

There is a curtain color is green and it is used mainly because those were the colors that represent Ireland. Green has been used throughout history in many revolutions, and also, in the past when Irish immigrants moved to U.S.A, the Irish immigrant did protest wearing green. So the color green isn’t really related to St Patrick, but to the Irish.

Most Americans don’t know the true story of this Holiday. I thought that it was about the leprechaun and clover, but in reality it is celebrated to honor St Patrick. Also I didn’t know about it’s origin. It is an irish holiday.
