 ST. CONGAR, BISHOP OF CONGRESBURY- A Holy Orthodox Saint of Britain
Coming through the revelation of an angel to what is now Congresbury in Somerset, the saint, as we read in his 12th-century life, "continued for a long time in this place, which pleased him well, wearing a cilicium (under-garment of goat's hair), living a blameless life, fasting and praying continually.
Every morning he plunged himself in cold water, staying in it till he had said the Lord's Prayer three times, after which he returned to the church and remained there in vigil and prayer addressed to the Creator of all things.
However, the saint sought solitude, and, leaving his weeping flock, he returned to his native Wales, where on the instructions of an angel and with the help of the local king he established himself on a mountain in Glamorgan.

These holy-day truces were absolutely binding, and bloodshed was not allowed to profane the religious nature of the festivities, anyone found doing so would be barred from attending the protective ceremonies which were central to the Celtic world-view, and in being so excluded would subsequently suffer the wrath of the most powerful and vindictive gods.
