On June 29, the two Saints Peter and Paul are celebrated in the capital of Italy, to commemorate their commitment to the defense of the Christian religion. It is an important day for those who live in Rome and for Christians, for this reason it is nice to send a gift at home. That’s why we want to propose some ideas that will arrive in time for that day, but first let’s see a bit of history.
Very brief history of St. Peter and Paul
The two apostles, Peter and Paul, arrived in Rome precisely to announce the word of God and both martyrs lost their lives at the hands of Nero. St. Peter was killed in the Vatican, crucified upside down in 64 AD, while St. Paul was beheaded in 67 AD, in what is now the Tre Fontane area. However, the date of June 29 was chosen in a conventional way, it was the date on which the Romans celebrated the Quirino, or the twins Romulus and Remus.
