ST. Patrick of Ireland
In AD 433, on Holy Saturday, Saint Patrick and his followers went to the Irish king, Leoghaire. Before that, Patrick was already preaching in the Irish lands. He "ordered the lighting of the Easter fire to celebrate Christ's Resurrection." Patrick arrived in Tara, but when he arrived, "thick, black clouds darkened the hills that day." But legend has that one quiet prayer from Patrick cleared the skies, and began to teach everyone about the one true God with three Persons, the mystery. Soon after, King Leoghaire and his chieftains were soon converted,and Christianity came and flourished in Ireland.
