Peter and Paul

As we wrap up our study of Romans, we will discuss the activities of Saints Peter and Paul in Rome as well as their martyrdoms and burial. Are the churches constructed today actually where those two saints were buried nearly 2,000 years ago? What do we know about their travels and martyrdom from history, scripture, and Church tradition? We will read the Roman accounts of Nero’s martyrdom of Christians and a wonderful passage by St. John Chrysostom about the relics of St. Paul.
