GTBE Director Eric Buehrer writes that after his escape, "He felt God calling him to return to Ireland with the Gospel. By the end of his life he had baptized over 120,000 Irishmen and established 300 churches. Within his lifetime, or shortly thereafter, the Irish slave trade ended - the result of a transformed people."
In addition to our former blog with many Resources for St. Patrick's Day, you might find the following helpful:
 When Irish eyes are smiling, sure 'tis like a morn in spring.
In the lilt of Irish laughter you can hear the angels sing,
When Irish hearts are happy all the world seems bright and gay,
And when Irish eyes are smiling, sure, they steal your heart away.
~Chauncey Olcott and George Graff, Jr. (lyrics), Ernest R. Ball (music)
