St Chad
St Chad was one of the three brothers of St Cedd, all monks from Lindisfarne, who in 654AD founded Lastingham Church as a Celtic Monastery. After Cedd’s death in 664AD, Chad became Abbot of Lastingham. Soon afterwards, however, he was in conflict between the Celtic way and the more structured Roman way, which had taken precedence over the Celtic way at the Synod of Whitby in 664AD. Chad was later consecrated Bishop of Lichfield. His feast day is 2nd March.
