Gracious God, we offer thanks for the lives and work of Richard Rolle, Walter Hilton, and Margery Kempe, hermits and mystics, who, passing through the cloud of unknowing, beheld thy glory. Help us, after their examples, to see thee more clearly and love thee more dearly, in the Name of Jesus Christ our Savior; who with thee and the Holy Spirit livest and reignest, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Richard Rolle was a hermit, mystic and writer in the first half of the fourteenth century. Believed to have been born in Thornton-le-Dale, he studied at Oxford before returning to Yorkshire where he lived as a hermit in various locations. pic.twitter.com/VpTYmeTFb8
