On June 29 we celebrate the Passion of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, Apostles of Jesus who are the crucial pillars of Catholic Church and the two most prominent Apostles amongst Christ’s followers. Our Lord built His Church upon Simon Peter and converted Saul on his way to Damascus planning to persecute the Christian there.
