SONGS in my head today... When Love Comes to Town [U2 & BB King], Desire [U2], Exit [U2] and Pure Shores [All Saints].

SAINT OF THE DAY St. Gilbert of Sempringham (c. 1083-1189)
Born at Sempringham in England, son of Jocelin, a wealthy Norman knight. Received the benefices of Sempringham and Tirington from his father. Founded the order that came to be known as the Gilbertines that survived until the suppression of the monasteries by Henry VIII. Imprisoned, but later exonerated of the charge of aiding Thomas a Beckett when the latter was in exile. Canonized in 1202

LINE OF THE DAY
