===The Humble Bishop===

St. [[Wilfrid]] was chosen to become bishop of [[Lindisfarne]] after the death of bishop Tudi. He travelled to Gaul for consecration and remained so long absent that King Oswiu (ruler of Northumbria) demanded a bishop. Having learned of the missionary exploits and great humility of Chad, called for his election as Bishop of York, to which place the [[See]] of Lindisfarne had been transferred.

His holy relics are preserved in the Roman Catholic Cathedral that bears his name in Birmingham, England.
