Saint Peter known as Simon Peter, according to the Bible was one of the Twelve Apostles leaders of the early Christian Church. The Catholic Church considers him to be the first Pope, ordained by Jesus. The ancient Christian churches all venerate Peter as a major saint and associate him with founding the Church of Antioch and later the church in Rome.

The New Testament indicates that Peter was the son of John and was from the village of Bethsaida in the province of Galilee. His brother Andrew was also an apostle. According to New Testament accounts, Peter was one of twelve apostles chosen by Jesus from his first disciples. Peter was originally a fisherman.
