How Did It Spread?

The Spread Of Christianity In Europe

As the Roman Empire fell, various groups from the North and East moved into Roman lands. People created states, and the people that created these states called themselves kings. These kings would fight causing Europe to divide into many sections. People hired monks and missionaries to help spread Christianity. One famous missionary is St. Patrick. We still honor him on St. Patrick's Day.


My Opinion

In my opinion, I think it took a while for Christianity to spread in Europe. Even with all of the help from monks and missionaries, it still took a while for people to convert.
 This shows people are not willing to change their religion for no reason at all.
