ST. PATRICK OF IRELAND - The Christian Confidence in a Triumphant Messiah

The Second Half of the Gospel of John presents a Confident Jesus, determined to carry out His Father's will. St. Patrick evangelized Ireland with the same zeal and surety in his message and mission. Fr. Bill ties the two together, including a prayer from among the earliest tradition of Christian evangelization as the Church begins the final days and weeks of the Season of Lent.

Wow! Such a deep and meaningful message with a dash of humor added (let’s not bring a peashooter lol😂). And like always, your delivery is so clear. Thanks Father Bill for highlighting the St Patrick’s Breastplate - I’m definitely going to add it to my prayer routine.
Love this part:
Christ with me,
Christ before me,
Christ behind me,
Christ in me,
Christ beneath me,
Christ above me,
Christ on my right,
Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down,
Christ when I sit down,
Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.

A spiritual bulldozer to say least!

Thank you Fr. Nicholas, I’m going to print that out and pray it with the grace of OUR FATHER. Being Irish and living in Ireland all my life now an OAP. I know I must have heard it before, but I didn’t obviously listen to it before, like I did now. Great homily as usual. God is definitely Blessing you but I’m asking Him any way to do it more and more. I pray the prayer to St.Michael morning and night sometimes more. I think it’s very important given the reason for its invocation. Viva Cristo Rey
