On this day in 604 AD, St. Gregory the Great passed from this life to the next, after living one of the most monumental lives in Christian and Roman history.
FWIW Our church in Topeka KS has 4 large stained glass windows on its west facade. Augustine, Gregory, Ambrose and Jerome. I had been a member of the parish for 45 years before I asked and was told by our priest who these men were on those panels. I had always assumed Peter, Paul, Augustine were 3 of the 4. The east facade has windows depicting Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
