HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY


I have no Irish heritage but this little tea cloth was embroidered by my mother.

I also appreciate the story of St Patrick and his love for God, shown by his diligence in hand copying the Bible and his missionary efforts in the 5th Century.

PRAYER OF ST PATRICK

"Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me.

Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, and in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger."
