Simon the Zealot and Jude the Apostle, St. Simon and St. Jude were two of Jesus' original Apostles. The two of them are popularly regarded as an 'evangelizing team' by the Christian religious tradition.
Saint Simon and Saint Jude were two of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus to spread his teachings. Saint Simon is often called Simon the Zealot, reflecting his previous association with a Jewish nationalist group. Saint Jude, also known as Jude Thaddeus, is often depicted with a medallion or image of Jesus because he is considered the patron saint of desperate situations. Both saints are recognized for their devotion to spreading the Gospel despite facing persecution and martyrdom.
Saint Simeon Stylites or Symeon the Stylite (c. 390 - 2 September 459) was a Christian ascetic saint who achieved fame for living 37 years on a small platform on top of a pillar near Aleppo in Syria.
