  ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN NOVEMBER Saints celebrated on the 14th of November   WELCOME! SAINT DUBRICIUS (DYFRIG), BISHOP AND CONFESSOR  [St Dyfrig] How great soever the corruption of vice was which had sunk deep into the hearts of many in the degenerate ages of the ancient Britons before the invasion of the English Saxons, God raised amongst them many eminent saints, who, by their zealous exhortations and example, invited their countrymen by penance to avert the divine wrath which was kindled over their heads.  One of the most illustrious fathers and instructors of these saints was St Dubricius, who flourished chiefly in that part which is now called South-Wales.  HE ERECTED TWO GREAT SCHOOLS OF SACRED LITERATURE He erected two great schools of sacred literature at Hentlan and Mochrhes, both places, situate upon the river Wye or Vaga, which waters Brecknockshire, Radnorshire and Monmouthshire.  In this place St Samson, St Theliau, and many other eminent sa...
