Chad wa Mercia
Chad (au Ceadda; alifariki 2 Machi 672) alikuwa abati wa monasteri mbalimbali za Uingereza, halafu askofu wa York na hatimaye wa Lichfield.
Alijitahidi kufanya uchungaji kwa ukamilifu wa maisha kufuatana na mifano bora ya Mababu wa Kanisa.
Pamoja na kaka yake Cedd anasifiwa kwa kuingiza Ukristo katika ufalme wa Mercia[1] ambao wakati huo ulikuwa na ufukara mkubwa.[2].
Wote wawili wanaheshimiwa tangu kale kama watakatifu.
Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 2 Machi[3].
