The Church of Ireland is a province within the Anglican Communion. So it's Protestant. St Patrick visited the area of Kilrea, in Londonderry. So there's a Protestant church there by the name of St Patrick's Church of Ireland.
--: The Church of Ireland is a church of the state, not a province.
A province is a territorial unit, almost always an administrative division, within a country or state. Re: Alberta is a province (state) of Canada.

Ireland is best known for its rolling, green hills and for the home of St. Patricks Day. (Even though the person that St. Patricks Day was named after, wasn't Irish or from Ireland.)
