May 27th - Saint Augustine of Canterbury By: Dave Jose

Saint Augustine of Canterbury was known for how he converted many people to Christianity including King Ethelbert. This conversion of millions of people began when the pope of that time, Pope Gregory I chose him to lead a missionary group to England. Since eventually the king himself was baptized, his subjects also converted to Christianity. In the end, St. Augustine’s only failure was to convert people in Wales, England. St. Augustine died in about the year of 604, a few years after he was designated, archbishop.
