The Apostles

This page is being prepared. It will present the twelve Apostles — Simon Peter, Andrew, James the Greater, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the Less, Jude Thaddeus, Simon the Zealot, and Matthias — together with St. Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles. Their calling by Christ, their mission to the nations, their martyrdom, and the apostolic tradition they bequeathed to the Church will be set forth from Scripture and Tradition.

"You have not chosen me: but I have chosen you; and have appointed you, that you should go, and should bring forth fruit; and your fruit should remain." — S. John 15:16
