St. Patrick's Breastplate

by Jim Manney

I love the prayer called St. Patrick’s Breastplate. Today, the feast of St. Patrick, is a great time to pray it. I like the prayer because it’s an invocation of God’s protection on a journey, and a journey is a good metaphor for life. Oh, yes — the imagery of the prayer is wonderfully vivid. The text of the prayer is here. The short video below is from Loyola Productions. The YouTube link is here.
