Yesterday was St Cuthbert Bishop of Lindesfarne, 687

                                                                                       The Gospel of  John 10:27

My 
sheep 
hear
my 
voice. 
I know 
them 
and
they follow me. 

After the Viking invasions 

of the late 8th century 

the monks were forced 

to leave Lindesfarne. 

and they took his bones 

inland to o Durham 
where he is buried along 
with The Venerable Bede
