Narcissus of Jerusalem was a second-century bishop and early patriarch of Jerusalem. Of Greek origin, he served as the 30th bishop of the city, presiding over a council in Caesarea where it was decided that Easter should be celebrated on a Sunday. Despite facing false accusations from within the Christian community, he chose to forgive those responsible. After a period of living in seclusion, he returned to his leadership role to serve his congregation and promote peace among the faithful.
