Feast of St. Colman of Lindesfarne

 

The Catholic Online says:

"When King Oswy introduced the Roman rites, Colman refused to accept the decision and led a group of Irish and English monks to the Isle of Inishbofin".

Cool name, Inishbofin. Turns out it's an Irish island originally called Inis Bo Finne, or Isle of the White Cow. It's the home of the endangered corncrake (see photo). You can go there and still see Cromwell's Barracks where he held Catholic Priests after the English Statute of 1585 declared them guilty of high treason.
