St Narcissus of Jerusalem

The Diocese of Sololá–Chimaltenango reports on the life of St Narcissus, who served as the bishop of Jerusalem in his old age. According to the historian Eusebius, the Christians of his time remembered several miracles attributed to him, including an instance where he turned water into oil for lamps during the Easter vigil.

Following accusations regarding his strict discipline and severity, Narcissus withdrew into solitude to avoid conflict. He later reappeared during the episcopate of Gordio. Because of his advanced age, he appointed a coadjutor. Tradition states that Narcissus died at the age of 116.
