Our father among the saints Peter the Wonderworker, Bishop of Argos, is commemorated by the Church on May 3.

Life

Saint Peter was born in Constantinople in 855. St. Peter died at the age of 70 and was buried in Argos. Five hundred years later the Venetians and the Franks raided Argos and Greece and took away the saint's relics. To this day, no one knows where they have been taken.
