St. Patrick came to Ireland first because he was kidnapped from his home in Roman Briton as a teen by Irish raiders. He was given to a cheiftan and became his swine herder. He came to God during this time. Afterwards, he escaped and went to the continent to learn and became a priest. He then was called to Ireland and did his best to convert the pagan Irish. As I remember, he was almost murdered by the druids many times. Eventually he prevailed which is pretty obvious.
