加拿大华人论坛 加拿大生活信息St Patrick's Day的来历

在加拿大

顾名思义这天(3月17日)是为了纪念沈派翠同志的日子, 派翠是个英国人出生时原名叫梅文苏佳(Maewyn Succat), 父亲是教会的一名执事(不过他父亲加入教会的目的是为了少缴点税). 派翠16岁那年他的家乡被爱尔兰人掠夺他也被爱尔兰人绑架为奴在爱尔兰的麻油郡(County Mayo)放羊.在为奴其间派翠信仰了上帝, 一天晚上他做梦梦见自己逃出了为奴之地回到了英国的家乡, 第二天他真的成功出逃走了200英里回到了家乡. 回家后不久一天晚上他又做了个梦, 梦中天使对他呼召要他再回爱尔兰把基督教福音传给爱尔兰人, 派翠顺服了神的旨意, 为此他装备了15年成为一名宣教士去爱尔兰传福音, 并改名为派翠作为自己的教名.西元432年他回到了爱尔兰, 向他们传福音, 当时的爱尔兰人异教盛行, 日月星辰无所不拜, 但是派翠成功的将基督的福音和三位一体的真理在爱尔兰人中传开了. 派翠在爱尔兰传道及开设学校为主做工近30年与西元461年3月17日安息主怀. 爱尔兰人尊其为国师, 为了纪念他遂把每年3月17日定为St Patrick's Day, 这天不单是爱尔兰的national holiday, 英国, 美国, 加拿大, 澳洲, 纽西兰等地都有相应的庆祝活动.

回复: St Patrick's Day的来历今天看见报纸上的新闻，真是感到遗憾，如此节日添上如此悲痛之事，舆论报道都将事情的起因推向喝酒导致的，看样子以后游行要检查酒精了。
