The icon of Saint Peter is the most important part of any home iconostasis. Prayers before it can protect you from danger, as well as strengthen and maintain faith in the Lord. The Apostle Peter was the son of a fisherman and had been fishing since childhood. When Peter reached an older age, he met Christ and followed him. Among the 12 apostles, Peter became a favorite disciple and follower of Jesus: it was to him that the Savior entrusted the keys to the gates of Paradise.
