Icon - St Patrick

Saint Patrick was a 5th century missionary and bishop in Ireland, and he is the foremost patron saint of that country. His feast is celebrated on March 17 by Christians all around the world.

In the icon, he is vested as a bishop. He holds the Gospel in one hand and a shamrock leaf in the other. The clover is traditionally considered a symbol of the Trinity and is closely associated with the saint.
