How do we know about the past?
Research about the famous monk, St Bede (AD 673–735). Discover why he is such an important historical figure. Use a selection of source materials to find out about him and develop a character profile about him and his work. Widely regarded as the greatest Anglo-Saxon scholar, St Bede wrote about 40 books. His most detailed account is from AD 730, 300 years after the Saxon invasions began. Many modern-day schools and churches are named after him.
Activity: Create a prayer service on the theme of St. Bede. Bede was moreover a skilled linguist and translator, and his work made the Latin and Greek writings of the early Church Fathers much more accessible to his fellow Anglo-Saxons, which contributed significantly to English Christianity.

(Rights and Responsibilities – link to St. Bede’s responsibility to accurately translate/record historical documents)
The Catholic tradition teaches that human dignity can be protected and a healthy community can be achieved only if human rights are protected and responsibilities are met. Therefore, every person has a fundamental right to life and a right to those things required for human decency. Corresponding to these rights are duties and responsibilities--to one another, to our families, and to the larger society.
James 2:14-18
Faith without works is dead.
