Summary/Abstract: In the liturgical calendar St. Paul is mentioned twice – for the first time on the day of his conversion (25 January), and then during the celebration – in common with St. Peter the Apostle – when the congregation contemplates his life and martyr’s death (29 June). In this article, through the analysis of liturgical texts about St. Paul – biblical readings and forms of the Holy Mass, and Liturgy of the Hours – the spiritual richness and depth of mysteries of salvation are transmitted to the Church community by this Apostle of the Nations.
