Lentorama 2006 Saint of the Day: St. Peter Gonzales
Also known as St. Elmo or St. Telmo (but not the St. Elmo with the fire), in his life Gonzales served as the canon of a cathedral, the chaplain to the court of King St. Ferdinand III, and evangelized throughout Spain.
He was apparently "famous for his penances and mortifications," and hopefully this wasn't connected to his "special fondness for sailors."
Gonzales died on Easter Sunday, so it seemed fitting to mention him on Good Friday.
