Saint · Common of Apostles · Damascus, Syria

The Feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul, Apostle, to whom, as he was making his journey near Damascus, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, Jesus himself revealed himself in glory along the way and chose him, that, filled with the Holy Spirit, he might proclaim the Gospel of salvation among the nations, suffering many things for the name of Christ.
