(Blessed) John Cardinal Newman


Last year the September meditation was on Cardinal Cooke; this year another cardinal. Pope Benedict will beatify Cardinal Newman on September 19, during the papal visit to Great Britain. Cardinal Newman is a great theologian, spiritual writer and poet who came into the full communion of the Catholic Church from the Anglican Communion. Almost all of his life was dedicated to education. He lectured at Oxford, tried to help found a Catholic university in Dublin (he was more successful than he seemed in his own time, it still exists)and wished that all people were given the benefit of a good education.
