Sure, we don’t believe in luck, leprechauns, and other mythical legends that originated in Ireland. We do believe in an all knowing, all powerful God. However, rather than shy away from the topic or boycott it all together, we’d like to talk openly about the original meaning of the holiday, what our culture has made it, why people celebrate it today and why we should or shouldn’t celebrate those same reasons. We can use this as a fun opportunity to study the history of Ireland with our kids, investigate the true story of the man we know today as, Saint Patrick.
