Although a lesser-known Irish saint, St. Aidan of Lindisfarne was a pivotal priest and missionary to the early Church in Ireland who cared unceasingly for the spiritual and physical needs of both the nobility and the poor. Follow along with Mary McGeehan and Augustine Institute professor Dr. Elizabeth Klein as they discuss this 7th Century Irish bishop in this episode of Catholic Saints.

St. Aidan of Lindisfarne exemplified the poverty which Christ calls us to in the Gospels in a radical way. Following his example, how can you embrace this call to poverty by living simply and aiding the poor?
