“It is very right that we should cast our nets so that a great multitude and crowd will be taken for God.

This is what the Lord says in the Gospel.

He warns and teaches in these words:

‘Go therefore and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold I am with you all days, even to the end of the age.’”

—Saint Patrick, Confessio, Trans. Pádraig McCarthy (Dublin: Royal Irish Academy, 2011), C40.
