Chad, Bishop of Litchfield, 672, who was trained by St Aidan of Lindisfarne as a follower of the Celtic tradition. (Remember that the Council of Whitby was 662)

                          Collect for Peace 

    O 

    God, 

    the 

    author 

    of 

    peace 

    and 

    lover 

    of 

    concord, 

    to know 

    you is eternal life and

    to know you is perfect freedom. 

Keep us, we pray,

from thinking of 

ourselves more 

highly than we 

ought to think, 

& ready at all 

times to step 

aside for others, 

that the cause 

of Christ may 

be advanced
