The English countryside is dotted with churches which had been places of Catholic worship until the horrors of the 16th century. One such is the the (now Anglican) Church of St Margaret of Antioch in the small village of Hemingford Abbots in Cambridgeshire.
The first recorded Rector, in 1200, was one Aristotle a monk of Ramsey Abbey, the current incumbent is Dorothy! I prayed for them both during a visit there today as well as all who have worshipped there down the centuries and of course the current congregation. "That they may be one".
The Font has been in continual use since 1200 to impart God's grace in the Sacrament of Baptism.
