Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424
Date – Wednesday, November 8th 2023 – St. Willehad
1. **Birth and Early Life (735-788):**
St. Willehad, born in 735, became the first Bishop of Bremen, a Diocese created by Emperor Charlemagne after his re-conquest of the Saxons.
2. **Charlemagne's Decree (788):**
In the year 788, Charlemagne issued a decree affirming his victory over the Saxons, their conversion to Christianity, and their obligation to pay a tithe to the Church. This decree demonstrated the close relationship between ecclesiastical and civil powers in that era. Charlemagne emphasized divine providence, victory through the Cross, and the Saxons' acceptance of baptism or facing death.
3. **Role of Charlemagne in Saxon Conversion:**
Charlemagne's decree revealed his approach to balancing justice with mercy. He acknowledged the aggressive nature of the Saxons, his victories, and the subsequent forced baptisms. Despite his military victories, he chose mercy by sparing the Saxons' lives, allowing them to return to their normal lives under Christianization and tribute to the Church.
4. **St. Willehad's Contribution (788-789):**
St. Willehad's acceptance as the first Bishop of Bremen was crucial. His sanctity and guidance provided spiritual support to the newly converted Saxons. He became the representative of God, ensuring the spiritual growth and maintenance of the Catholic faith among the people.
5. **Legacy and Symbolism:**
St. Willehad symbolized the fragrance of sanctity in the early Christianization of the Saxons. His role as a Bishop Saint, surpassing even the Emperor in spiritual significance, highlighted the importance of sanctity in upholding the Catholic spirit in the region.
6. **Relevance Today:**
St. Willehad's example serves as an inspiration for rebuilding and maintaining Christendom in challenging times. His life demonstrates the transformative power of sanctity and faith, even in the face of historical complexities and societal changes.
St. Willehad's life and Charlemagne's decree together illustrate a pivotal period in the history of Christianity, emphasizing the role of sanctity, mercy, and divine providence in shaping the course of nations.
Let us ask St. Willehad to help us rebuild and maintain a new Christendom in these times, which are much worse than his.
St. Willehad, pray for us!
