Patrick of Ireland: Episode Five ENCORE

This episode focuses on themes of family, vocation, and serving God. An angelic visitor visits Patrick in a dream, calling him back to Ireland. Because it is risky to return and evangelize the Pagan Irish, it leads to conflict with Patrick’s family, who is scared that he is going back to Ireland and endangering his life. Some moments of intense argument with his family.

There are touching moments between Patrick and his sister Darerca, who encourages Patrick to risk everything on God and follow where he thinks God is calling him, even if it means leaving his family and safety for the salvation of souls. Positive and affirming portrayal of father and son relationship.
