And the very fact that you and I are alive today, the shelter of our homes, the fact we can enjoy the wind on the heath in camp, our books and sport and school, all these things come to us through men like Wilfred and St. Patrick, St. Columba and St. Ninian, St. Augustine and others who in the days of long ago came to lift our fathers from their wretched, quarrelsome life and from the starving helplessness of the men of the shingle beach.

The people of the North Sea Islands and of America and the rest of the Christian world have these good things in their life because there came to save our forefathers, heroic missionaries like Wilfred, Columba, and Augustine.

Wilfrid, Aldhelm and the Trans-National Monastic Network

TonyHOST

When we trace the roots of Christianity in Southern England, Wilfrid's name pops up with a thump that makes you want to grab a quill and dig into the past.
TonyHOST
1:02
He arrived on a small island off Sussex called Selsey and, on land granted by King Æthelwald, planted the first episcopal see there around six hundred and eighty-one CE, a move that essentially turned an almost pagan strip of mainland Britain into a Christian center.
TonyHOST

TonyHOST
1:32
But Wilfrid didn't simply sit in his new diocese.
