Russian Icon - Apostles Peter and Paul

Saint Peter († between AD 64 and 68), was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ, leaders of the early Christian Church. He is also venerated as the "Apostle of the Apostles" and the first pope of the Roman Catholic Church, ordained by Jesus in the "Rock of My Church" dialogue in Matthew 16:18. The Christian churches venerate Peter as a major saint and associate him with founding the Church of Antioch and later the Church in Rome.

Saint Paul († AD 67), was an Apostle who taught the gospel of Christ to the first-century world and is generally considered one of the most important figures of the Apostolic Age founding several churches in Asia Minor and Europe.

The Orthodox church assigns 29 June as the feast day of both Apostles, Peter and Paul.
