In this episode, we take a closer look at St. Anacletus, the often-overlooked second bishop of Rome after St. Peter. Drawing from early historical sources and church tradition, we explore what we know about his life, his martyrdom, and his pivotal role in organizing the Roman Church. One of his most lasting contributions was the division of the Christian community in Rome into 25 distinct parishes, each with its own priest—a move that laid the groundwork for the structure of pastoral care in the early Church. Join us as we rediscover the legacy of this early shepherd of the faith and his enduring impact on Church governance.
