Ireland’s second-most beloved saint, Brigid, has her special day on February 1. Brigid is associated with many miracles related to healing, and it's fitting that the day to commemorate her is also the traditional first day of spring in Ireland. He’s co-patron of Ireland alongside Saint Patrick. Her generosity knew no bounds.
Some people believe that Saint Brigid didn’t exist, pointing out similarities to a Celtic goddess also named Brigid. They claim that the Church used a Christianized version of the Celtic divinity as a tool to evangelize more Irish men and women. However, there are many accounts of her existence by her contemporaries. There was even a biography written by Saint Broccan written around the 7th century, less than a century after her death.
