St. Patrick's Day | Missions
Shared on: Mar 10, 2016
On this Saint Patrick's Day, we take a moment to redeem the day, and the memory of the man for whom it is named. Though much of the history has been lost to social constructs or obscured by time, there was once a man named Patrick. And today, we remember his mission: to bring the gospel to a people, desperate for good news.
