Today is the Memorial of Saint Hilda of Whitby (c. 614 – 680), Saint Etheldreda of Ely (c. 636 – 679), and Saint Mildred of Minster-in-Thanet (c. 660 - 732), and All Holy Nuns.
O GOD, by whose grace thy holy Nuns, blessed Hilda, Etheldreda, and Mildred, enkindled with the fire of thy love, became burning and shining lights in thy Church: grant, by their merits and prayers; that we also may be aflame with the spirit of love and discipline, and may ever walk before thee as children of light; through Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen.
