Saint Celestine I, born in the late 4th century, possibly in Rome or Campania, was Pope from 422 to 432 AD, a steadfast defender of orthodoxy during a time of theological upheaval. A deacon under Pope Innocent I, he ascended to the papacy on September 10, 422, and is best known for convening the Council of Ephesus in 431, which condemned Nestorianism—affirming Mary as *Theotokos* (Mother of God) against Nestorius’s heresy. He sent legates to enforce the council’s decrees, exiling Nestorius, and combated Pelagianism in Britain and Ireland, dispatching Saint Patrick as a missionary. Celestine died on July 27, 432, in Rome, leaving a legacy of doctrinal clarity and Church unity. His tomb lies in Santa Prassede, though his feast day aligns with an earlier burial tradition. | Saint Celestine I, born in the late 4th century, possibly in Rome or Campania, was Pope from 422 to 432 AD, a steadfast defender of orthodoxy during a time of theological upheaval.
