Happy St. Patrick's Day

Wear Green. Drink something green. Pinch someone who isn't wearing green. Have some green eggs and ham. Attend a green parade. Speak with an Irish accent. Plant a shrub or tree. These are just a few things people will do to have fun at the work place and with friends to honor St. Patrick on this St. Patrick's Day.
It may be more fitting and honorable to the saint if we thank God today for our salvation. Pray for someone who does not yet know Christ. Invite someone to attend an Easter service or mass as our guest so they may hear about Jesus Christ. Become involved in beginning churches that help others experience Jesus. Begin serving Christ in a local church with our financial giving, talents, abilities, and spiritual gifts God has given us.

I hope yo uhave a fun St. Patrick's Day. Look at how Paul the apostle greeted the followers of Jesus in the letter of Philippians.
"1Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi..."
May we consider this greeting and live as St. Patrick for just today.
