St. Peter the Apostle (RLS 14) (Style 1) Mouse Pad

St. Peter the Apostle (1st century) hardly requires an introduction. First in honour 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 Source (RLS 14): Antique image in chromolithography with gilt accents of St. Peter the Apostle from Red Letter Saints: Being a Series of Biographies of those Saints for which Proper Collects, Epistles and Gospels are appointed in the Book of Common Prayer.
