Lentorama Saint of the Day: St. Celsus
A layman, Celsus became bishop of Armagh in 1105. This was apparently a hereditary see; so much for celibacy. Celsus implemented many reforms in his see, and mediated with warring Irish tribes. He also ended the hereditary succession in Armagh by naming St. Malachy as his successor.
He is not the patron saint of the metric system.
