@JimMcMurtry01 Jim, you should look at the history of the British Home Children. My grandfather at the age of 5 was sent on a shipload of 200+ other boys to serve as farm labourers in Canada. He was allowed to attend school only until Gr 3 then was sent to a farm to work until age 18.

@hilarityjane Given the dire straits that the Church seems to be in, what is your strategy for keeping your faith? Some days, I just despair.

@Disc_light @scirebroc Congratulations! I know that there is a lot of work that goes into acceptance. Definitely an achievement worth celebrating.

Artists at work: one paints & the other appears to be grinding what may be a lump of lapis lazuli in this initial 'S'(enior) at the beginning of 3rd Epistle of John.

@cspotweet @DuaneBratt Every UCP official who travelled outside the province over Christmas should resign. It’s the only way for the Kenney government maintain any semblance of credibility.

[Aidan @BenedictineCell]

@cbcjanjohnston @DuaneBratt @TracyAllardUCP She needs to resign. Such behaviour undermines any credibility regarding Covid restrictions.

[Medieval Manuscripts @BLMedieval]

To commemorate the 850th anniversary of the martyrdom of Archbishop Thomas Becket, here are two of the earliest illustrations of that event.

They were both made in the late 12th century and are found in manuscripts @britishlibrary.

[Eleanor Parker @ClerkofOxford]

The fifth day of Christmas is the feast of St Thomas Becket, murdered in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170, 850 years ago today. #Becket2020

'The fifth day belongeth to St Thomas
Who like a strong pillar of brass
Held up the church, and slain he was...'
