St. Patrick - His Confession

<p><em>"You can judge and believe in all truth that it was a gift of God.</em><br /> <em>This is my confession before I die."</em></p> <p>St. Patrick was a fifth century bishop who came to be known as the “Apostle of Ireland.”</p> <p>A confession is thought of today primarily as an acknowledgment of guilt. It can also refer to the praise of God’s greatness or a profession of faith.</p> <p>In this Confession, St. Patrick recounts and gives thanks for the many blessings of God which Patrick had experienced throughout his life, despite his failings and limitations.</p> <p>St. Patrick, pray for us!</p> <p><strong>Links</strong></p> <p><em>St. Patrick's Confession</em> Full Text: <a href= "https://dialogueireland.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/confessio-letter-single-page-17th-mar-03.pdf" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://dialogueireland.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/confessio-letter-single-page-17th-mar-03.pdf</a></p> <p>Way of the Fathers, Ep. 51—St. Patrick | Paternal & Patristic: <a href= "https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/51st-patrick-paternal-and-patristic/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/51st-patrick-paternal-and-patristic/</a> </p> <p>Go to <a href="http://www.catholicculture.org/getaudio" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">http://www.catholicculture.org/getaudio</a> to register for FREE access to the full archive of audiobooks beyond the most recent 15 episodes.</p> <p>Donate at: <a href= "http://www.catholicculture.org/donate/audio" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">http://www.catholicculture.org/donate/audio</a></p> <p>Theme music: 2 Part Invention, composed by Mark Christopher Brandt, performed by Thomas Mirus. ©️2019 Heart of the Lion Publishing Co./BMI.
