St. Lebwin, Patron of Daventer (12 November): Butler's Lives of the Saints

About this sermon

In this episode of The Lives of the Saints by Father Alban Butler, we honor St. Lewin (St. Lebuin), the patron of Daver, an English Saxon priest and missionary of the 8th century. Known for his humility, holiness, and unshakable courage, St. Lewin dedicated his life to spreading the Gospel in Lower Germany. His unwavering faith amidst persecution, and his fearless proclamation of the one true God, continue to inspire Christians across centuries. Discover how this child of grace lived a life of prayer, sacrifice, and apostolic zeal — and how his legacy of miracles and martyr-like devotion endures. 📖 Source: The Lives of the Saints by Father Alban Butler 📅 Feast Day: November 12 🙏 Saint: St. Lewin (also known as St. Lebuin) 📍 Patron: Daver ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 00:10 – Saint Lewin: The English Saxon Missionary 00:45 – His Early Virtue and Spiritual Growth 01:14 – Journey to Lower Germany and Meeting St. Gregory 01:43 – Evangelizing in Daver and Founding a Chapel 02:35 – The Saxon Assembly at Marlo 03:10 – Courageous Preaching Amid Persecution 03:50 – Escape and Divine Protection 04:05 – Conversion of Many and Ongoing Evangelization 04:40 – Persecution under the Saxons and Destruction of the Church 04:58 – Rebuilding and Final Years 05:10 – Legacy, Miracles, and Veneration at Daver https://sensusfidelium.com/the-lives-of-the-fathers-martyrs-and-other-principal-saints/november/saint-lebwin-patron-of-daventer/ Get Butler's Lives of the Saints here: https://loretopublications.idevaffiliate.com/idevaffiliate.php?id=102&url=1 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶ 1.
