Random Saints In The 8th Century (262 items)report

About This Tool

From the 8th century on, English missionaries succeeded Irish missionaries as the main force of missionary work. For example, Bonifacio, the so-called “apostle of the Germanic peoples, ” was sent by the Pope in the 8th century to expand the diocese into Germany. These English monks were well organized and disciplined and had close ties to the Holy See. At the same time, the English monks stayed longer in the mission area, so the influence was more far-reaching. So someone said, “the Irish turned itinerant speakers into missionaries, and the English turned missionaries into church planters. ”
