Patron Saint of Writers, Publishers, and Theologians

St John was the youngest and the most beloved disciple of Jesus. Although St. John was wealthy, he never attended the school of rabbis and was therefore considered a wasteland. St John is known as the author of the fourth Gospel and of the Book of Revelation, the only prophetic book of the New Testament. John looked after the Virgin Mary after the death of Christ.
