Fionán of Lindisfarne

Published: June 1, 2022

Read about the missionary work of  this 7th century Irish monk.  He played an important role  in the conversion of the northern Saxons.  The breviary of Aberdeen styles him “a man of venerable life, a bishop of great sanctity, an eloquent teacher . . .  remarkable for his training in virtue and his liberal education, a man of God who devoted  devoting himself to good works and presenting in his life, a most apt example of virtue.”
