  Notes	St. John the Apostle, also known as St. John the Evangelist or St. John the Divine, was one of the original Twelve Apostles of Jesus. His life and contributions are significant in early Christian history. Background and Early Life: John was the son of Zebedee, a Galilean fisherman, and Salome. Along with his brother James, he was among the first disciples called by Jesus. In the Gospel According to Mark, John is mentioned after James, likely indicating that he was the younger brother. His mother was one of the women who ministered to the circle of disciples. Role in the Early Church: John, along with James and Peter, formed an inner nucleus of intimate disciples. In the Fourth Gospel (traditionally attributed to John), the sons of Zebedee are mentioned only once, at the shores of the Sea of Tiberias when the risen Lord appeared. The identity of the “disciple whom Jesus loved” (who remains unnamed) in this Gospel is not explicitly confirmed to be John. Notable Works: Gospel According to John: Traditionally attributed to John, this Gospel provides a unique perspective on Jesus’ life, teachings, and miracles. Letters of John: John is believed to be the author of three New Testament epistles. Possibly the Revelation to John: While the attribution is debated, some traditions associate John with the authorship of the Book of Revelation. Legacy and Feast Days: John played a leading role in the early church at Jerusalem. His authoritative position is evident from his visit with St. Peter to Samaria to lay hands on new converts. Western feast day: December 27 Eastern feast days: May 8 and September 26 In summary, St. John the Apostle left a lasting impact through his writings and leadership in the early Christian community. His legacy continues to inspire believers around the world .
