St Hilda of Whtby and Friday. FRIDAY?! Shhesh! It's the Friday before Thanksgiving! How can that be??? Tempis fugiting again.

    Luke 18:1



Then Jesus 
told them 
a parable 
about 
the need 
to pray 
always 
and not 
to lose heart. 
        Give us the grace to recognize & accept 
   the varied gifts 
   you bestow on 
   men & women, 
   that our com-
   mon life may 
   be enriched &
    your gracious 
    will be done. 
       - Collect

                         St Hilda, of Whitby (610-680)
abbess of Whitby, a double house (of both monks & nuns) common in the Celtic tra-
dition and site of the Council of Whitby in 
663 where Roman tradition  won out over 
the Celtic .
