Are There Orthodox Saints in Wales? With Tad Deiniol

During my pilgrimage in Wales, I met the remarkable Tad (Father) Deiniol, pastor of All Saints of Wales Orthodox Church in Blaenau Ffestiniog and the only Welsh-speaking Orthodox priest in the country.

During our interview, he told me the story of how he became an Orthodox Christian and also many details of Orthodox saints of Wales, particularly in North Wales, where he serves. And of course he told me about the dragon.
