Happy St. Patrick's Day!

[Shin]

I always am so happy to read your and Cyril's posts. They brighten my days.

I am so glad you two are here.

Yes I am the same way, I want our holy days to be holy days not holidays.

Amen let them become so again.

I suppose if I said I was getting slower faster you wouldn't find it a very crisp nor precise remark.  But please forgive me and accept my best wishes for every day.  My bride has just scheduled a hip replacement surgery in June, which seems to concern me more than her.  Please keep us in your prayers.

eschator83, May everything go well for your wife.

[Shin]

You are of course in my prayers.

Welcome Curious, I hope you will enjoy your journey in this Saints-works forum as much as I have.  Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have about how things work here.  Almost every source I have about St Patrick describes him as the son of an English pastor (many priests were allowed to be married in those days) who was captured at about the age of 6 by raiding Irish seamen, and held as a slave in Ireland for about 6 six years until he escaped and managed to stow away on a boat headed for England.  He resolved to become a priest and return to convert Ireland as much as he could.  I'm writing off the top of my head, but you can click the search button on the top bar to see a summary of comments here about St Patrick.  Enjoy.
