Blessed be God in His angels and in His saints!

Wonderful hagiography!

Excellent!

As a member of St. Cuthbert of Lindisfarne Catholic Church of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter, located in Indianapolis, IN, USA, I thank you for this wonderful hagiography.

Naomh Aohdán pray for us ☦

Could you please make another video where you tell us more of the St. Cuthbert stories which you alluded to at the end of the video. Thank you and God bless you.

These stories are beautiful, and I love that you tell them on location. Could you do some more of them? I really love the stories of the Early English saints 💙 Thank you and God bless you.

That's me

Excellent visit video on Saint Hilda. Please make more!

Jesus is Lord

Wonderful video. Many thanks for posting this.

A 900-year-old church? It is nine hundred years of beauty. Cute little video, too.

Not sure if she would like being called a "nun", which is a Roman term. Hild was a Christian leader in the Celtic Church that kept the Biblical Sabbath instead of the Roman "Sun"-day and remembered the Lord's death on the Biblical date of Passover rather that the new invention of "Easter" by the Church in Rome. The Synod of Whitby opposed Hild's beliefs and practices and once the king was swayed by the Roman representatives, the British churches became Roman, which has remained until today, including those who term themselves as 'Protestant.' They did not debate the different dates of "Easter" as you say, but rather the Celts opposed the Roman imposition of "Easter" to replace the Biblical Passover date that Jesus observed. The Celts would not use the name of a pagan deity ("Eostre/Eastre") to name a Christian festival and would not have called the first day of the week in honour of the "sun" ("Sun"-day), rather they gave glory to the "Son." Neither did they uphold the Roman inventions of the Mass of Christ on December 25th ("Christ-Mass"), or the invention of "Lent" and other man-made observances, all of which are now upheld without question in most western churches.

Great video thanks you

Saint Aidan. If, like Saint Columba, he is of the Ui O'Neil of Donegal, then he's from my grandad's tribe. And I say God Bless my kind kinsman.

I could listen to this man read the phone book ...wish he posted more!

Saint Cuthbert, pray for us!

Ahodian is the proper spelling. :)

Another reason he may have been left at the monastery is those institutions were often seen as stable and enduring. We often think about the Vikings sacking monasteries and churches like the one at Lindisfarne, but those were the exceptions. Monasteries were often quite safe as attacking one could endanger one's immortal soul. Plus, besides working their own land, the monks could depend on locals to contribute some of their crops ensuring a supply of food that many families may not have been able to guarantee. Plus, dedicating a child to a religious institution was not an uncommon one. We see that occurring in the ancient world with the Vestal Virgins and then Samuel in the Old Testament. Obviously not everyone participated in it, but it was far from unheard especially given that the Rule of Saint Benedict (quite popular in England at that time) made stipulations regarding it.

Thank you so much for this inspiring video about this beautiful saint. Working on the illustration of him just now

Love this video! Thank you ☺️

I also want to mention that Bede said twice in his writings that he was married. Many people assume this is metaphor but having read the sections (in modern English) I think he was being literal. Given how little we know about that era and the fact that even Catholic priests were not prohibited from marrying until centuries later this seems plausible to me.

Nicely done video. I did want to note that learning the middle ages was based on the Classics from Greece and Rome. The ancient Greeks not only knew the Earth was a sphere but they had measured it to within 2% of its actual size. Not bad considering they did it with sticks, string and shadows. So Bede's understanding that the world was a a sphere would not have been unusual.

Font name please

Learned more about Bede from this short video than in almost anything I've read over the years, especially in the way it brings his long-vanished world alive--and at the original sites, too! Was unaware he now seems to be a canonized saint, as I thought the status of "venerable" was below sainthood. Also didn't realize these structures from his time still existed, even if partially-reconstructed. I'd like to read and/or listen to at least some of Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica, something I've never done, to get a true sampling of, and feel for, Dark Age Britain, a subject which has long-intrigued and fascinated me. No doubt this Benedictine monk was a man of his time--that is to say, thoroughly medieval, but, judging from this video, he also saw into the future, to an age far-removed from his own, when his historical writings would be of immense value to generations of later centuries; otherwise, he knew, perceived, or sensed, that all this history would be lost forever. He considered it his primary duty, aside from serving God, to preserve such priceless information. You certainly conveyed here how grateful we are!

My Man Cuthie 🌿
