#StPatrick'sDay a day to fight the growing #HumanTrafficking as there is now 10X more slaves than in 1860.

When St. Patrick was about sixteen, he

was captured by raiders and brought to what is now considered to be Antrim, where he was sold as chattel to a chieftain and put into forced service as a shepherd. In his voice, we hear that of trafficking victims of all faiths, clinging in spirit to the severed connections of family and culture to sustain them in their duress.
