Bl. J.H. Newman

Lest anyone should think that I am not being fair to our Brothers in Christ, I will choose for my Saint of the Day Blessed John Henry Newman. Blessed John Henry was born in 1801 in England and was raised in the Church of England. As an adult, he was part of a movement to return the Church of England to many Catholic beliefs and forms of worship traditional in the medieval times. He converted to Catholicism and was eventually made a Cardinal. His feast day is October 9.

P.S. Yesterday, I told you all who I chose for my confirmation Saint and why. For those of you who chose a Confirmation Saint, who did you choose and why?
