On January 25, the faithful celebrate the Conversion of St. Paul, one of the great events of the early Church. Saul, a student of the great Pharisee rabbi Gamaliel, had persecuted Christians but was suddenly converted on the road to Damascus when Our Lord appeared to him in His resurrected glory (see Acts 9:1-9). From this point, he took the name Paul and would become the “Apostle to the Gentiles.”
