Are you wearing green today?
While I don’t know much about St. Patrick and couldn’t find much about him online either, I did read that today is believed to be the day of his death. He is also the patron saint of Ireland and it appears that he was active as a missionary in Ireland during the second half of the fifth century.
By the way, St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland is not celebrated in the same manner as we American’s celebrate. My Irish friend told me that once.

I am not wearing green today. I have never been much of a St Patty’s day celebrator. Don’t know why, really. Guess I just don’t know much about it, myself. It’s funny though, because just this year my kids have been asking me what it is. So, they wore green today.
