nov 3, 579 - Synod of Grado

Description:

A meeting of bishops loyal to Aquileia that helped to prolong the schism of the Three Chapters. They met under the presidency of Elias, Patriarch of Aquileia, and with the presence of the Papal Legate, the priest Laurentius, and seventeen bishops, and two priests representing absent bishops. A letter of Pope Paschal I, dated April 20, was read out, in which permission was granted to move the Seat of the Patriarchate from Aquileia to Grado, while retaining the title of Patriarch of Aquileia.
