Product Description
Our Saint Peter the Apostle Plaque shows Simon Peter (Latin: Petrus, Greek: Πέτρος Petros, Aramaic: Cephas – died c. 64-67 a.d.) was one of the original Twelve Apostles. Peter, but a simple fisherman, was entrusted – in spite of his fearfulness (Matthew 14:22-33), impulsiveness (John 18:8-11; 21:6-7), and sinfulness (Luke 5:1-10) – by Jesus with the most important leadership role in the early Church. He is now the patron saint of fishermen and popes. This plaque is an excellent gift for first communion, confirmation, a birthday, and for Christmas (a superb “stocking stuffer”!).

This solid bronze plaque is available in three sizes: small (p28k – 2 x 1.6 inches), medium (p88m – 3.75 x 3 inches), and large (p72g – 7.9 x 6.3 inches). This plaque hangs easily on the wall at home or in the office. A bronze-smith of world renown created and cast this solid bronze plaque. This is the perfect gift for that special “Peter” or “Pete” in your life!
From Fearful Fisherman to Roman “Rock”
A most unlikely leader for the Church of Christ! Originally a fisherman, he had a leadership role among the followers of Jesus and was in Jesus’ inner circle. He confessed Jesus as the Messiah (Matthew 16:13-20) but then denied him three times (Luke 22:24-34, 47-62; John 18:15-18, 25-27). After his reinstatement (John 21:1-19), he preached on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-41). According to tradition, Peter was crucified upside down in Rome during the reign of Emperor Nero Augustus Caesar. His mortal remains are preserved in the underground Confessio directly under the dome of Saint Peter’s Basilica. He shares his main feast day with Saint Paul of Tarsus on June 29th.
John 21:1-19
Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Galilee. It happened this way: Simon Peter, Thomas (also known as Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. “I’m going out to fish,” Simon Peter told them, and they said, “We’ll go with you.” So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.
He called out to them, “Friends, haven’t you any fish?”
“No,” they answered.
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.
Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, “It is the Lord,” he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred yards. When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there with fish on it, and some bread.
Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you have just caught.” So Simon Peter climbed back into the boat and dragged the net ashore. It was full of large fish, 153, but even with so many the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” None of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord. Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish. This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead.
When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”
“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”
Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”
The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!”
