Saint Patrick was born in England, but it was during his teenage years, that he was captured and taken to Ireland as a slave. After a long six years, Saint Patrick managed to escape back to his hometown and family. God used Saint Patrick’s kidnapping to convert the Irish people, as a result he is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland.
The Social Justice team made sure to celebrate this wonderful saint, they put up a wonderful display for all the community to see, with lots of three leafed shamrocks. This is symbolic of the saints teaching on the Holy trinity the three in one God, which is symbolised with the three leaves in one plant.
Green Jelly was made and sold by the team, with all proceeds going to Project Compassion – Caritas Project.
"If I have any worth, it is to live my life for God." St Patrick
