'''Saint Paul the Apostle''' (AD 5 – AD 64–67), also known as Saul of Tarsus or the Apostle to the Gentiles, was a [[Saints|saint]], missionary, and theologian pivotal in early Christianity’s spread. Born in [[Tarsus]], Cilicia, to Jewish parents of the tribe of Benjamin, Paul was a Roman citizen and Pharisee trained under Gamaliel in Jerusalem. Initially a persecutor of Christians, he converted around AD 33–36 after a vision of Christ on the road to Damascus (*Acts 9:3–9*). Baptized and mentored by Ananias, he preached in Damascus, Jerusalem, and beyond. His missionary journeys (AD 46–60) to Antioch, Ephesus, Corinth, and other regions established Christian communities among Gentiles. Author of 13–14 New Testament epistles, including *Romans* and *1 Corinthians*, he articulated doctrines of grace, salvation, and the Church as Christ’s body. Imprisoned in Rome, he was martyred by beheading under Nero around AD 64–67. Canonized pre-Congregation, his feast day is [[June 29]], shared with [[Saint Peter]], in the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches. He is patron of missionaries, theologians, evangelists, Gentiles, rope makers, and Malta.<ref name="web2">{{cite web |title=Paul the Apostle |url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_the_Apostle |website=Wikipedia |publisher=Wikimedia Foundation |access-date=2025-05-15}}</ref><ref name="web5">{{cite web |title=St. Paul |url=https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11567b.htm |website=Catholic Encyclopedia |publisher=New Advent |access-date=2025-05-15}}</ref> | '''Saint Paul the Apostle''' (AD 5 – AD 64–67), also known as Saul of Tarsus or the Apostle to the Gentiles, was a [[Saints|saint]], missionary, and theologian pivotal in early Christianity’s spread.
