Saint Paul (also called Paul the Apostle, The Apostle Paul or Paul of Tarsus) who called himself the "Apostle to the Gentiles", and was, together with Saint Peter and James the Just, the most notable of early Christian missionaries . His efforts to accept gentile converts and to define the Torah as superseded by Christ were successful and decisive. The church is 35 metres long and 22 metres wide, and consists of the main nave which is nine metres wide, two aisles, the sacristy on the left and the oratory on the right. In 60 AD, St Paul, patron Saint of Malta, performed a number of miracles during his stay on the island, including the healing of Publius' father, the Roman governor. |
