Saint Willibrord
From this page I learned the following:
Willibrord is a symbol of ties between the Christians of England and those of Holland. Today the historic See of Utrecht is in full communion with the Church of England.
He also strongly campaigned against idolatry. And so I offer you the following:
Do not suppose that abuses are eliminated by destroying the object which is abused. Men can go wrong with wine and women. Shall we prohibit and abolish women? The sun, moon, and stars have been worshipped. Shall we pluck them out of the sky?
...
Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God.
