John Wycliffe was a friend of the poet Geoffrey Chaucer, who was one of Wycliffe’s students at Canterbury Hall, Oxford, in 1367. Chaucer wrote his famous ‘Canterbury Tales’ in the same Middle English dialect as Wycliffe used in his Bible translation, and together these two men had a great influence on the development of the English language.
The Canterbury Tales is a collection of 24 stories (written mainly in verse) that runs to over 17,000 lines. The tales are presented as part of a story-telling contest by a group of pilgrims as they travel together from London to Canterbury to visit the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral.

Jonathan Goforth Revivalist Apostle To China
Jonathan Goforth was born, the seventh of eleven children, in February 1859 near London, Ontario, in Canada. His parents were hard-working farmers and, if the young Jonathan learned about the things of God through his devout mother, he also learned hard work from his father, who once went to Hamilton for food and walked all the way back through the bush â a distance of 70 miles â with a sack of flour on his back!

He was known for his âmen-onlyâ meetings and straightforward language. In the Belfast shipyard of Harland & Wolff, a âNicholson shedâ was erected to house stolen tools that newly converted workers returned as a result of Nicholsonâs preaching!
