Saint Grimbald, Benedictine monk, and prior of St. Bertin religious community. Alfred of England was inspired with the man’s heavenliness, and when he climbed the position of authority, Alfred asked Grimbald to come to England to share his insight and blessedness. Grimbald touched base in England around 885 and inspired numerous with his insight into Scripture, his ability in music, and his heavenliness. Grimbald helped found the University of Oxford, and filled in as its first educator of heavenliness. Declined the ward of Canterbury. He resigned to Winchester, and with the Lord’s support, he started the establishment of Newminister, and was then introduced as abbot.
