Hi all or y'all

The British Orthodox Church is running a survey to find the favourite and most significant British saints.

Why not pop over to our site and leave your favourite.

The survey entry form is at http://www.britishorthodox.org/competition.php

You might even win a book when the survey is complete at the end of the year.

Best wishes

Dear Peter,

I have posted in my entry - St. Cuthbert. I hope that anyone else on this site with a favourite British saint will take part - after all, for much of the history of these Islands, they were part of the Orthodox Church.:)

In Christ

Well, I'm not British, but I do have a favorite British saint. I voted at the British Orthodox website, but I will also tell you about my favorite here. My favorite British saint is St. Frideswide. To me, her life story is almost the opposite to all the many fairy tales where the prince and the princess fall in love without much concern for other things in life. Although she was a princess and a prince sought to marry her, she beleived that her devotion to God was far more important than simply being married to a prince.
