Saint Patrick (''Naomh Pádraig'') of [[Ireland]] was an independent Christian [[missionary]] who travelled to Ireland in the early-or-mid 5th Century AD to complete the work of the [[Bishop Palladius]], who had earlier been charged by the [[Pope]] with the task of evangelising Ireland. Patrick is believed to have converted virtually the entire island of [[Ireland]] to [[Christianity]]. Much about him remains a mystery, though some of his personal writings have survived.
