Show Notes

Saint John of Beverley was from the Yorkshire region of England. He was Bishop of Hexham in 687–705, and the Bishop of York in 718-721. He was known for his miracle-working, both in life and and after his death. His intercession was thought to have been responsible for many English military successes - most notably, King Henry V attributed his famous victory over the French at Agincourt to Saint John, and made a pilgrimage to his resting place at Beverley soon a few years after the battle.
