St. Peter the Apostle (1st century) hardly requires an introduction. First in honor among the twelve apostles, he was the rock upon which Christ Jesus Himself established His nascent church. Martyred at Rome c. 64, St. Peter was crucified upside down so as not to emulate too closely Christ's death on the cross. + St. Peter is patron of the universal Church. + Image Credit (PM 07): Details from an antique image of St. Peter the Apostle from a late 19th century chromoxylographic devotional print probably by Heinrich Knoefler (1824-1886) published by Friedrich Pustet, Regensburg, Bavaria, Germany, in the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera. + Feast: June 29
