Ireland is famous for its missionaries down through the centuries. An old nickname for Ireland was the land of saints and scholars. From famous saints like Columba (also known as St. Columcille), Columbanus, Kilian and Forannan down to ordinary people who even today still go to countries to help spread Christianity.
