![]() A fish (occupation) rests on a book; in a similar way, Simon became a great fisher of people through the message of the gospel. |
St. Simon: Called the Cananean or Zealot because of his zeal for the Jewish law; he was not from Cana, nor a member of the Zealot party. Like all the Apostles, he was a convert, and was trained by Saint Peter the Apostle. Evangelized in Egypt and Mesopotamia, though there are traditions of him being in several other locations. He was a martyr for the faith. |
