The Syriac Church of Antioch
This church is called Syriac Church of Antioch because it was in Antioch where the apostles Peter and Paul, the disciples of Jesus were first called Christians.

7 Churches of Revelation Tour in Turkey
Many of the most important events in Christian history occurred in Turkey. Born in Tarsus, the Apostle Paul spread the word of Jesus Christ across Anatolia. On Turkey’s Eastern Mediterranean coast is Antakya, known in biblical times as Antioch. This ancient city was home to the first important Christian community, founded in 42 AD by St. Paul. Jesus’ followers were first called “Christians” in Antioch and from here Christianity spread to the world. Join us in private tour of the Seven Churches of Asia Minor.
Ancient church tells story of early days of Christianity
LEAD IN:
As Pope Francis I arrives in Turkey, Catholic priests in the country are calling for an ancient church that has been turned into a museum to be reopened for Christian worship.
St Peter's Cave Church, in South East Turkey's Antakya city, is according to oral tradition, the place where St Peter first preached when Christianity was founded.
STORYLINE:
Carved into the ancient rock of Mount Starius, St Peter's Cave Church is thought to be one of Christianity's oldest churches.
According to historians St. Peter arrived in Antioch together with St Paul and Barnabas in 42-43 A.D and began disseminating Christianity from the city.
And although there is no archaeological evidence that the Apostle prayed specifically in this cave, historians believe that caves in Mount Starius where the first places where Christians secretly united for prayer.
In the time it was not a church, it was just a grotto. And we think it was a place of worship for the pagans. And after the Christians, they changed into a place of worship for the Christians. And for this reason, the Grotto of St Peter is important because (it) remembers the beginning of our Church in Antioch (antakya), says Father Domenico Bertogli, the Italian Catholic Priest of Antioch (Christian name for Antakya) of the order of Capuchins.
It was in Antioch that we were called Christians for the first time. It was in Antioch where the Gospel was opened to the pagans, because (until then) it was a question of Jews, into the Judaism. It was in Antioch where the Mission expedition began he adds.
In 1987 the church was turned into a museum by the local authorities. In 2012 it was closed for renovation due to a risk of stones falling from the mountain.
According to the Archaeological Museum of Antakya, in 2012 the church received 16,000 foreign visitors and 93,000 local ones. The church interior is still closed to visitors until the renovations are complete.
Antakya is nowadays the capital city of Hatay province, bordering the volatile conflict in Syria.
According to historians, St Peter most likely lived in the Jewish neighbourhood in downtown Antakya, where Christians also conducted meetings in private houses.
There are mosaics from the 5th Century A.D. There are remains of plasters on the wall - even though they are have almost disappeared. That proves that in the early 5th Century this place was used as a church, says Professor Hatice Pamir, from the Archaeological Department at University Mustafa Kemal in Antakya.
But evidence points towards Christian worship in the caves much earlier.
There are archaeological records that the Apostles and the first Christians used the caves along the valley of the Parmenius Gorge (that descends towards the Orontes river in Hatay), she says.
Renovation works on the church are almost finished, although there is not a fixed date for its reopening to visitors.
Father Bertogli says he hopes that the church will reopen as a serving place of worship, rather than a museum.
We don't accept for the church to become a museum. It is a church and we want it to become a church. Just for all the Christians, when they come to Antioch, to visit, to pray, to stay sometime there.
Antakya city, with a population of 250,000, has nowadays one thousand Christians, one hundred of them belonging to the Catholic church, according to figures by Christian authorities in town.
The city is a mix of ethnicities and religions.
More than half of the population of Antakya are Sunni Muslim, followed by Alawis and Christian Arabs.
In the old town, a Catholic church, a mosque and a synagogue gather in a few hundred square metres.
In one of the Catholic buildings, members of the Peace House Chorus sing praise.

Pope joins Orthodox Patriarchs in Bari for prayers for Middle East
(7 Jul 2018) Pope Francis on Saturday denounced the murderous indifference that has allowed violence to consume the Middle East and drive tens of thousands of Christians from their homes, calling out global powers for seeking power and profit at the expense of the region's people during a remarkable gathering of Orthodox patriarchs and Catholic leaders.
Francis hosted the daylong ecumenical service in the Adriatic port city of Bari, considered a religious bridge between East and West and home to the relics of St. Nicholas, an important saint in the Orthodox Christian world.
Francis greeted the patriarchs outside the Basilica of St. Nicholas and together they descended to the crypt to pray before the relics and light a flame for peace symbolising the unity of Christians divided by over 1,000 years of schism.
For years, the Vatican has voiced concern about the plight of Christians driven from Mideast communities that date to the time of Christ.
