Synopsis:
Living on the outskirts of a small town, Lawrence works as a local pastor for the townspeople. When needed, he is responsible for guiding people to church to visit "The Saint"—a symbol of good morals who attends to each parishioner's struggles and gives them heartfelt advice.
Cecilia, a kind young woman, is tasked with fulfilling this role; however, this tiring work quickly exhausts her. This, combined with her hidden sleepy nature, often causes her to rest in the church. This leaves Lawrence to care for the church alone. While Cecilia sleeps in anticipation of her next visitor, Lawrence attends to her needs along with the numerous responsibilities of the church.
Finally, the Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence ( Shiro Seijo to Kuro Bokushi ) arrived in April 2017 in Shōnen Magazine R, and Kodansha has just released its 10th volume.
