Wasn't he also a missionary and teacher, who during all these years
since, continues to be revered and celebrated for his work?

connection, his actual missionary travels and the 'fields' to which he was sent?
Paddy was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up to heaven he said, "Lord, take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will go to Mass every Sunday for the rest of me life and give up me Irish Whiskey!"
Then, miraculously, a parking place appeared.
Paddy looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one."
