Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day March 17 is St. Patrick’s Day, a time for revelry and wearing green to celebrate all things Irish. However, St. Patrick’s Day began as a religious feast day, honouring the patron saint of Ireland and commemorating the anniversary of his death in 461 CE. St. Patrick is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland in the last half of the third century. Many legends have arisen since his death, including one tale that proclaims he rid Ireland of all its snakes. St. Patrick is also said to have used the three leaves of the shamrock, Ireland’s national plant, to explain Christianity’s Holy Trinity to his followers. Today, it is celebrated by wearing green clothes, sporting shamrock decorations, and drinking green beer.
