The monastics in the British Isles, like the monastics across the Christian world of Late Antiquity, became a primary force within the whole of Church life. They were missionaries. They were librarians. They were copyists. They were authors. They were hymnographers. They were a hedge against the power of the state. They were protectors of Orthodox teaching.

I think what matters more than anything else is to hold the hand of the perishing person till the end, so that they feel they are not alone … I have wondered time and again how many people must have left and how many leave daily, just because there was nobody to pay for their medication! How small is the value of human life in the Africa of poverty and deprivation!
