BROTHER
SAINTS (October 26th) Their
parents must have got stuck on page three of boy’s names, for they
gave each of their four sons a name beginning with the letter
“C”: Chad, Cedd, Cynebil and Celin. All four of these seventh
century boys became priests but it is only really the first two
whose reputation has survived up to our own day. St Chad and St Cedd
are honoured in the calendar. Chad
was the abbot of several monasteries and a disciple of St Aidan. He
ended his days as Bishop of Lichfield and is credited by St Bede for
being responsible for evangelising large parts of what today we know
as the midlands of England. His
brother Cedd was born into the same Northumbrian family and like his
brother Chad he joined the monastery on Holy Island, or Lindisfarne.
He founded an abbey at Lastingham in Yorkshire and he
travelled into Anglia on missionary work, settling in Essex and
becoming eventually Bishop of London. On a visit back home to his
abbey at Lastingham he caught a plague and died along with one of
his brothers, Cynebil, in 664
TEN OF THE BEST 1.
Name each of the Ten Commandments. 2. Having
faith means trusting in what God says, believing in something you know
isn’t true, or having a religious feeling? 3. How
many people did Jesus feed with the loaves and fishes? 4. Name
the five books of Moses. 5. Name
someone who went to heaven without dying. 6. Prophets
were good businessmen, fortune tellers, spokesmen for God or apostles?
7. Who
was emperor when Jesus was born: Herod, Augustus, Pilate, Nero, or
Julius Caesar? 8. How
many errors does the bible contain: a few, a lot or none at all? 9. Who
could enter the Holy of Holies: Moses, the prophets, the apostles, the
High Priest or any devout Jew? 10.
Name any verse in the bible that mentions the doctrine of the
eucharist. WE
ARE ALL PENCILS in the hand of a writing God, who is sending love
letters to the world. (Mother Teresa) GOD
DOES NOT ASK for your ability or your inability. God asks only for
your availability. (Crispina
Waller) HE
WHO WISHES to secure the good of others, has already secured his own. (Confucius) THIS
