St. Peter (also translated as St. Peter) was one of the most important leaders of early Christianity and the head of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ. His original name was Simon, and Jesus named him "Peter" (which means "rock" in Greek) and said he would build his church on this rock. He was one of the first followers of Jesus. The Roman Catholic Church reveres St. Peter as the first Bishop of Rome, the first pope, and the famous Vatican Basilica of St. Peter (St. Peter's Basilica) is built above his burial ground.
