'''Saint John I''' (c. 470 – May 18, 526) was a [[Saints|saint]] and [[Bishop|Pope]] of the [[Roman Catholic]] Church from 523 to 526, revered as a martyr for his steadfast faith. Born in [[Siena]], [[Tuscany]], [[Italy]], he rose from archdeacon to pope during a turbulent era marked by the Arian heresy and political tensions between the Ostrogothic Kingdom and the Byzantine Empire. Sent by King Theodoric the Great to [[Constantinople]] to negotiate leniency for Arian Christians, John successfully restored relations with Emperor Justin I, ending the Acacian Schism and uniting the Eastern and Western churches. However, his refusal to fully support Arianism led to his imprisonment by Theodoric in [[Ravenna]], where he died of starvation and neglect. His feast day is celebrated on [[May 18]] in the [[Roman Catholic]] Church and [[Eastern Orthodox]] traditions.
