Earlier this year I was in Newcastle as part of a four-month pilgrimage through five Australian states. I live on the UK’s Holy Island of Lindisfarne – the Cradle of Christianity to English speaking people. From that island Saint Aidan, helped by women on the mainland such as Saint Hilda, introduced the brutal seventh century Anglo-Saxons to the gentle ways of Christ, and allowed Jesus to emerge in the natural patterns of the people.
