A way with words
Words came easily to Peter: words that made people feel good, words that changed people’s lives.
It was no surprise that he found himself in the ministry and that he was eventually named bishop of what was becoming one of the most important city in the country.
People came from all over the world to hear him and spoke of his “golden speech.” Compilations of his homilies would be published widely.
St. Peter Chrysologus shepherded the people of Ravenna for more than 25 years before his death in the year 450. His memory is celebrated on this day.
