Is it today? because on my calendar it gives the date out as Monday March 17th,or is everyone celebrating it early :confused: :D :rolleyes:
'Tis true Kandy and I'm confusing people (how unusual) ... From Wikipedia ... "(St Patrick's Day) became a feast day in the Roman Catholic Church due to the influence of the Waterford-born Franciscan scholar Luke Wadding[1] in the early part of the 17th century, and is a holy day of obligation for Roman Catholics in Ireland. The date of the feast is occasionally moved by church authorities when March 17 falls during Holy Week; this last happened in 1940 when Saint Patrick's Day was observed on 3 April in order to avoid it coinciding with Palm Sunday, and will happen again in 2008, when it shall be held on either March 14[2][3] or March 15.[4] After 2008, March 17th will not fall during Holy Week again until 2160.[5]" Here is another link ... http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/new.php?n=9917 We'll just celebrate it for three day. :D :D
