ST. PATRICK
Patron of Ireland
St. Patrick's (389-461) work in Ireland was astounding: baptizing tens of thousands and establishing a native clergy and church. His work was a sign of tenacity and love in a land that had once held him in slavery. As in very old sculptures of Patrick, here he is shown holding a sheep --- a symbol both of the work he performed when he first arrived and of his work as a shepherd of souls.
