Almighty God, whose servant Chad, for the peace of the Church, relinquished cheerfully the honors that had been thrust upon him, only to be rewarded with equal responsibility: Keep us, we pray thee, from thinking of ourselves more highly than we ought to think, and ready at all times to give place to others, (in honor preferring one another,) that the cause of Christ may be advanced; in the name of him who washed his disciples’ feet, even the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
Today is the Feast of St Chad, great Northern saint noted for his humility & love. Happy Chad’s Day, @ChadsAlumni, @StChadsJCR, @StChadsMCR! pic.twitter.com/OLYoWDD3wX
