St Columbanus
St Columbanus was an influential Irish monk and missionary of the early Middle Ages, known for his significant contributions to the spread of Christianity across Europe. Born in the late 6th century in present-day Ireland, he founded several monasteries in France and Italy, including Luxeuil and Bobbio, and is credited with coining the term "totius Europae" to express a shared European identity. His teachings emphasized the importance of community, interfaith dialogue, and stewardship of creation, making his message relevant even today as Europe faces various societal challenges.
