Saint Peter Thomas, born around 1305 in Périgord, France, rose from abject poverty to become a Carmelite friar, bishop, and papal legate, celebrated for his eloquence and ecumenical efforts. Leaving home at 12 to ease his family’s burden, he taught himself while begging, joining the Carmelites at 20. His preaching prowess and diplomatic skill led to roles as Procurator General in Avignon (1342), bishop of Patti and Lipari (1354), and titular Latin Patriarch of Constantinople (1364). Tasked by popes to unite the Eastern and Western Churches and rally crusades against the Turks, he traveled tirelessly across Serbia, Hungary, and Constantinople, earning a reputation as an “Apostle of Unity.” Wounded during the 1365 Alexandria crusade, he died of fever on January 6, 1366, in Famagusta, Cyprus, revered as a saint even in life for his miracles and asceticism. | Saint Peter Thomas, born around 1305 in Périgord, France, rose from abject poverty to become a Carmelite friar, bishop, and papal legate, celebrated for his eloquence and ecumenical efforts.
