On St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2025, Irish Catholics held Masses and Rosaries at the historic Mass Rock on Slemish Mountain, where St. Patrick was once enslaved. St. Patrick's Day, a Christian feast day since the early 17th century, is observed by various denominations to commemorate St. Patrick, the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, and Irish culture. Celebrations often include parades, festivals, céilithe, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks. #shalomworldnews #saint #ireland #catho
