Chapel of St. Paul |
 |
Saint Paul was one of the founders of the Christian church. The book of Acts in the Bible tells his story, and the New Testament of the Bible includes many of the letters he wrote to the first Christians. |
| Over the altar in this Chapel St. Paul is shown holding a sword - a symbol of his preaching in the Bible, which is the 'sword of the Spirit' (The Bible, Ephesians chapter 6 verse 17), and of his death. Around the Chapel, mosaics show the Bible stories of his life. |  |
| You can read about when St. Paul became a Christian in The Bible, Acts chapter 9 verses 1-19 . | |
