My vote: David
Brendan of Clonfert, or Brendan the Navigator was a 5th-6th century Irish saint known for visiting many islands throughout Britain and founding a monastery on most of them. He is most famous for sailing the Atlantic Ocean in search of the Garden of Eden.
David is roughly contemporary with Brendan, and is the patron saint of Wales. He was a renowned preacher, and is most famous for the miracle that occurred while he was preaching one day. He was speaking to a large crowd in the village of Llanddewi Brefi when the ground beneath him started to rise, creating a small hill where a church still stands today.
I think this vote comes down to whether you’re Irish or Welsh. I’m a tiny bit Welsh, so I’m voting for David.
