In Christianity, bishops are normally responsible for the governance of dioceses. The role or office of bishop is called episcopacy.

Nath Í Of Achonry
Saint Nath Í, or Crumnathy, (''fl''. 6th century) was an early Irish saint who was remembered as the founder of Achonry. He is said to have been born in the barony of Leyney, in present-day Co. Sligo. In the 17th century, John Colgan compiled a Latin ''Life'' of St Cormac, published in the ''Acta Sanctorum Hiberniae'' series, which relates that Cormac left his native Munster for Connacht and arrived in the area of Leyney. When Niall, the brother of the local chieftain Diarmait, begged the saint for a blessing, Cormac revealed that he was to have a son by the name of ''Conamel'', whose descendants would include a number of illustrious saints, such as Náth Í "the priest". In the ''Martyrology of Donegal'' (9 August), he is described as the priest (''cruimthir'') Nath Í of Achad Cain Conairi. He is said to have studied under St Finnián of Clonard.
