“Peter wasn’t afraid to ask questions, to take chances, or to risk sounding dumb. He spoke up—sometimes out of turn and way too soon. He was ambitious, curious, and sometimes unclear. At times he was brave and protective (remember that guard’s ear?), and other times he was afraid and chose his own safety. All the while, Peter never gave up trying, working, and seeking to be true to his calling.
Peter loved Jesus deeply. It is on this love, faithfulness, and determination that the Church was founded.”
