Eadwoldis

Eadwoldis, also known as Eadwulf, was a medieval English saint and abbot. Born in the late 7th century, Eadwoldis was a member of the Mercian dynasty, the ruling family of Mercia, a kingdom in Anglo-Saxon England. He is best known for his association with the city of Worcester, where he served as abbot of St. Peter's Abbey.

Eadwoldis is believed to have been a devout Christian, and his life was marked by his piety and dedication to his faith. He is said to have been a close friend of King Offa of Mercia, who was also a devout Christian. Eadwoldis is credited with helping to establish the abbey at Worcester, which became an important center of learning and religious life in the region.

Eadwoldis is commemorated on the 17th of October in the liturgical calendar of the Church of England. His feast day is celebrated with a service at St. Peter's Abbey in Worcester, where his relics are said to be interred. The abbey remains an important pilgrimage site for Christians today, and Eadwoldis is remembered as a saint who dedicated his life to the service of God and the people of Mercia.
