IT'S SAINT PATRICK'S DAY

It is March the 17th, the day of the festival of Patrick. It is an official Christian feast day that is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, Eastern Orthodox Church, the Lutheran Church and most importantly the church of Ireland. For devoted Christians they might want to start the day off by going to church services. But one thing to keep in mind is that it is  a fun and colorful day where everyone gets to wear green. And if you are not seen in green you get pinched lol it sucks I know, especially when you are not into celebrations like that. But saint Patrick's day is also special because he was a legendary saint  because he described the holy trinity using the three-leaved plant.  That is what  the celebration is all about. The festival is observed in different countries like Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Russia, South Korea and many more. In the United States it is not a legal holiday but it is duly recognised and observed throughout the country as a celebration of Irish and Irish American culture. So eat, drink moderately, and display the color Green 😄😄
