St. JOHN I

Christian Saint

Pope and Martyr from Tuscany

He ended the great schism between Eastern and Western churches and was hailed as a hero.

Not for long of course — he was accused of betrayal on his return to Rome and thrown into prison where he eventually died.

We are not sure if dying of old age in prison counts as martyrdom but we’re not in the mood to quibble.
