Saint Patrick

Saint Patrick started his life as a slave, herding sheep.

After a vision from God he went to Ireland and preached God's love, converting and baptising as he preached. He most famously used the three leaf shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity to the Irish.

Saint Patrick is the primary Patron Saint of Ireland, he wandered the lands preaching and converting people from all backgrounds.

Prayer from the novena

Saint Patrick's prayer

Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of every man who speaks of me, Christ in the eye that sees me, Christ in the ear that hears me. Críost liom, Críost romham, Críost i mo dhiaidh, Críost istigh ionam, Críost fúm, Críost os mo chionn, Críost ar mo lámh dheis, Críost ar mo lámh chlé, Críost i mo luí dom, Críost i mo sheasamh dom, Críost i gcroí gach duine atá ag cuimhneamh orm, Críost i mbéal gach duine a labhraíonn liom, Críost i ngach súil a fhéachann orm, Críost i ngach cluas a éisteann liom.
