🇮🇹 🇬🇧 🇻🇦 Saint Paulinus of York Missionary and Bishop ♗ ( ✝️ 644 Anno Domini A.D.) Feast: 10 October The deeds of Saint Paulinus are known chiefly through Saint Bede's "History of the English Church and Its People", written in the eighth century. An Italian monk, Paulinus was among the second band of missionaries sent by Pope Gregory the Great to convert the Anglo-Saxon peoples of England. He arrived there in 604. Bede describes him as "a man tall of stature, a little stooping, with black hair and a thin face, a hooked and thin nose, his aspect both venerable and awe-inspiring." He worked chiefly in Northumbria, his great achievement there being the conversion of King Edwin. 🤴 ➡️ ⛪ #Catholic https://giveusthisday.org/ https://aclerkofoxford.blogspot.com/2014/10/st-paulinus-and-sparrow.html
