Breastplate of St. Patrick

Since medieval times, the prayer of the Breastplate of St. Patrick has been invoked as a true spiritual shield. Inspired by Irish tradition and associated with the biblical passage about the armor of God (Ephesians 6), this prayer, according to legend, became the saint's miraculous protection against his persecutors: by reciting it, St. Patrick and his companions were protected to the point of becoming invisible, camouflaged as deer amid the thicket.

Breastplate of St. Patrick: Prayers of Protection and Faith captures the essence of this tradition, presenting 30 prayers, a meditative novena, and biblical quotations designed to strengthen trust in God and the intercession of the patron saint of Ireland. Within its pages, you will discover the life of St. Patrick: from his captivity and conversion, to his tireless evangelizing mission carried out with humility, courage, and an unconditional love for Christ. Traditional images and spaces to write your personal intentions make this book an ideal companion for daily prayer, times of difficulty, or celebrations such as March 17th.
