Saint Bede the Venerable,
Priest and Doctor of the Church.
Feast Day 25th May.
A learned saint of the British Isles he lived,
studied and died in Northumbria and was honoured as a saint even during his
lifetime, 673 - 735. Renowned as one of the greatest scholars of the
Church he was acquainted with the philosophical principles of Aristotle. A
student of natural philosophy, astronomy, arithmetic, grammar and Church
history he wrote extensively about the Lives of the Saints and Holy
Scripture.
His work: History of the Christian
Churches in England is considered one of the seminal works of
Anglo-Saxon history and is considered fundamental to the English national
identity.
Bede died in 735 praying
his favourite prayer: “Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to
the Holy Spirit. As in the beginning, so now, and forever.”
