Saint Patrick is not an officially canonized saint by the Catholic church, his birth name was Maewyn Succat (or Sucat), and he wasn't originally from Ireland. He was born at the end of the 4th century in what is now Dumbarton, Scotland (northwest of Glasgow). By his own admission, he ignored Christianity until he was kidnapped when he was 16 years old and taken with thousands of others as a slave to Ireland where he prayed in bondage and servitude for six years. He escaped, returned home, and—motivated by his deep Christian faith—returned as a missionary to Ireland in his mid-40s, successfully converting many pagans in his journeys throughout the country. |
