St. Aidan’s Day Celebration - August 25

Join us after the worship on Sunday, August 25, for a Potluck in celebration of St. Aidan of Lindisfarne Priory.

St. Aidan is our patron saint and was an evangelist, a leader, a teacher, an organizer, and a friend to the poor.

Aidan was a monk at Iona, an island of the Inner Hebrides in Scotland, when King Oswald of Northumbria requested that he be made bishop of the newly converted Northumbrians. Consecrated in 635, Aidan settled on Lindisfarne, where he established his church, monastery, and see.

He also tirelessly helped the poor and disadvantaged people of ancient England. Under his direction and that of his successors, Lindisfarne flourished as a leading ecclesiastical center until the Danish invasions began in 793.

From Lindisfarne, Aidan evangelized northern England. He founded churches, monasteries, and, on Lindisfarne, a school for the training of ministers. Aidan died on August 31, 651, and was buried at Lindisfarne. He has been called “The Apostle of the English.” 
Adult Forum - August 25: Heiwa - Harmony
 Mark 12:31 - 'The second in this, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." There is no other commandment greater than these."
