Local DFW St. Patrick’s Day Activities
To many people, I think St. Patrick’s Day is one of those holidays where everyone wears green, but not everyone understands why we have this holiday. Did you know…
~The Shamrock is the national flower of Ireland because St. Patrick used it to explain the Holy Trinity?
~St. Patrick is the saint accredited to bringing Christianity to Ireland?
~The intended meaning of St. Patrick’s Day is a traditional day for spiritual renewal and offering prayers for missionaries worldwide?
