THE FIFTH CENTURY

401 - 500 AD

The Middle Ages was punctuated with some notable characters. Gregory the Great (540 - 640) is considered the first medieval pope. He saved Rome from the Barbarians, sent missionaries to England, and established a system of Christian doctrine. Winfrith of Crediton (672-754), who changed his name to Boniface (to adapt to those he was ministering to), became known as the "Apostle to the Germans". In 645 Muslims conquered the Middle East. With that loss of territory by the Church, Boniface's conquest of Germany was most welcome to the Papacy.
