Happy St Patrick’s Day!

St. Patrick’s Day is an annual celebration observed on March 17 that honors St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. Originally a religious feast commemorating St. Patrick’s role in bringing Christianity to Ireland, the day has grown into a wider cultural observance marked by parades, music, traditional Irish food, and wearing green. Symbols like the shamrock, which St. Patrick reputedly used to explain the Holy Trinity, and Celtic imagery are commonly associated with the holiday. While rooted in Irish heritage and faith, St. Patrick’s Day is now celebrated around the world as a time to appreciate Irish culture, community, and shared traditions.
