June 24 St. Bartholomew of Farne

The good St. Bart started life as known as Tostig. But his Norwegian name didn’t go over well with his classmates since he lived in England. So he changed his name to William. He changed it again when he became a priest to Bartholomew. He spent the last 42 years of his life living as a hermit on the island of Farne. All except for that one year when he had a falling out with the one other person on the whole entire island, another monk. He packed up his cell and moved back home. The Bishop told to him to stop acting like a spoiled brat and use the common sense God gave him. And sent him packing back to the Island of Farne.
