The epic story of one man's spiritual odyssey through hardship and loss, mercy, and forgiveness. Patricius of Britain was the privileged son of a Roman official. At the age of sixteen he was suddenly abducted and enslaved by foreign pirates from Hibernia - a land now known as Ireland. For six years the newly named Patrick suffered at the hands of cruel masters and was abandoned to isolation as a shepherd. He endured extreme weather, starvation, and loneliness. Yet, in the midst of this, God was with him, showing love to the boy who had once rejected it. And then God told him to go home.
