St. Patrick's Day this year was a fun, special, & busy day! That Saturday morning Michael sang at the 8am Mass and then we all joined in the hundreds of people "walking for life" during the Eucharistic procession from our church to the local abortion clinic. We all prayed for the dignity and respect of human life, and for an end to abortion. Then back at the church, hundreds of our church family members (mostly all decked out in green!) gathered to celebrate one of the greatest Bishops and Saints, Saint Patrick. Prayers and some of his writings were shared, as well as young parishioner girls who were Irish Dancing for us, and Irish music was played by talented musicians. It was a wonderful celebration!

Ben was REALLY captivated by the Irish dancers, I mean REALLY captivated! He just stared and stared.
He LOVED them!

We saw lots of our friends there!

One of the Irish Dancers, she's apparently like, the best EVER. Won some award for Irish dancers? All I can say was she looked great to me- and her outfit was very jazzy ;)
