St Peter

 


Jesus said Peter was the rock of the church.  Peter was impetuous – he was so enraged by Judas' treachery that he sliced off his ear!

 

He was the first apostle to perform a miracle – healing a lifelong lame leg. 

 

He was crucified by Emperor Nero.  He is patron of fishermen and the papacy.  His emblems are keys, ship, fish and a cockerel.  His feast day is the 29th June.
