In preparation for Saint Patricks Day!

Working in Elementary Religious Education affords one the best of the religious cartoon ...and not so good. Luckily, it is hard to screw up the Story of St. Patrick, I don't know if it is because the Irish would uprise and destroy anyone who did, or people might notice the silliness of that between their green beer and "I'm not Irish, but kiss me anyway" shirts. Either way, I have taken to reading a book called "Celtic Spirituality" this Lent, which includes many of the writings of St. Patrick himself, more on that in a few days, but St. Paul said it is better to start with milk before meat, so here ya go...
Unfortunately, our friends over at VeggieTales suffer from Catholic Amnesia, and fail to mention he went, not just to "church", but he went to Catholic Church. It is important that we not lose sight of the meaning of this holiday! More to come later this week!
