Saint Edward the Confessor |
|
Before Saint Edward was a
king, he knew the meaning of hardship. Evil and jealous men drove him out of
England. But some of the loyal, faithful people of England remembered him.
These loyal people wanted Saint Edward to come back to England, to be their King. He
heard their appeal and accepted.
Saint Edward was forty years old when he accepted their plea to be King of England.
Saint Edward was called the Confessor
because he confessed proudly his belief in Jesus and as a Catholic.
He was one of the greatest Kings in
England.
Instead of sitting on the throne, he
walked the streets.
He was always talking with the people and asking them about their problems, and helping
the people in England be happy. England under Saint Edward grew not only rich, but
blissful.

He always prayed to Jesus. Asking
for guidance from the Son of God.
He ruled the country of England as Jesus wanted it ruled. |
