Feast Day

Today we actually have 2 saints to celebrate and both are very familiar to Christians everywhere...I've linked to MethodX for more information. While you're reading about them, ponder this...which one are you more like? Peter or Paul?

Of St. Peter:
Peter gives us some of the most human moments in the New Testament. He is unafraid to express his questions and fears; he often puts his foot in his mouth. Although he proclaims, "I will lay down my life for you" at the Last Supper, Jesus correctly predicts that the next day Peter will deny his Lord three times before the cock crows. After the resurrection, Jesus returns to ask Peter "Do you love me?" three times to give Peter the chance to declare his loyalty.

and St. Paul:
Paul reached out to Jews and Gentiles, determined to share the good news of Jesus Christ. He traveled throughout the eastern Mediterranean. He survived being stoned, beaten and thrown into jail. Despite the persecution in eight years of travel he touched countless lives with his preaching, established Christian communities, and encouraged people's spiritual growth by letters (the New Testament's Epistles).
