Our father among the saints [[saint]]s '''Peter the Wonderworker, [[Bishop]] of Argos''', is commemorated by the Church on [[May 3]].
==Life==
St 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.
Since the early 1990s Argos churchmen have been trying to locate the [[relics]]. They were eventually found in a [[monastery ]] [[chapel ]] near Rome. On [[January 19 January ]], 2008 the relics were ceremoniously returned by Vatican [[Clergy|clerics ]] to the [[Cathedral ]] of Argos.
