Petros

Petros is a Greek male given name meaning “rock” or “stone,” and is associated with the apostle St. Peter.

When I use the term Petros throughout my website, I am referring to all other documents that come personally from the Pope or that cannot be confirmed without his consent (such as a council or the Bible), more examples are:

  • The Bible
  • Papal Encyclicals
  • Councils
  • Apostolic Constitutions
  • Papal Bulls
  • Motu Proprio
  • Apostolic Exhortations
  • Decretals

Therefore, I as a Catholic endevour to practice reading this type of material to guarantee the preservation of the true Catholic faith in my heart. Feel free to join!
