Happy C.S. Lewis’ Day!
The “day” of a saint is usually the day he (or she) died, not the day he was born because the day the saint died is the day he was born into eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven. That’s probably the day we’ll really want to remember for all eternity.
No one has officially canonized C.S. Lewis but he stands pretty tall in the history of the Church. He died today in 1963. I’m looking forward to sitting down with him someday and having a cup of tea but I’ve got a feeling I’ll have to stand in a pretty long line to do it.
