Augustine

Augustine, First Archbishop of Canterbury, 605

The Collect:

O Lord our God, who by your Son Jesus Christ called your servant Augustine to preach the Gospel to the English people: We pray that all whom you call and send may do your will, bide your time, and see your glory; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Augustine of Canterbury was a monk who became the first Archbishop of Canterbury in the year 597. He is considered the "Apostle to the English" and a founder of the English Church. When Augustine was consecrated bishop, he established his headquarters at Canterbury. From his day to the  present, there has been an unbroken succession of archbishops of Canterbury.
