History of St Patricks Day
The origin of St Patricks Day was in Ireland. St Patrick, recognized by the Roman Catholic church as a saint, spent many years in Ireland working hard to convert the pagans to Christianity. He traveled across the country, establishing monasteries, schools and churches—often putting his own life in great peril.Irish folklore includes a number of stories about St Patrick. Perhaps the most famous of these is that he gave a sermon on top of a hill and chased the snakes out of Ireland. The truth is that there never were any native snakes in Ireland. It seems that the story may have been symbolic for the conversion of the pagans. St Patricks Day was first celebrated in America in 1737 in Boston, where there were many Irish living. Several hundred years later, we celebrate in America every year on March 17, the day that St Patrick died. Here we have parades (the 2 most noteworthy are in New York City and in Savannah, Georgia), we participate in the “wearing of the green” everywhere from the workplace to the neighborhood school, and, of course there is a lot of drinking green beer! It’s a happy day, if no longer a religious day in most quarters.
