## Bio

Stephen became Bishop of Rome on 12 May 254, stepping into the seat during Christianity's contested early centuries. He held the office until his death on 2 August 257. Some accounts say he was killed while celebrating Mass, though the details remain murky across the distance of seventeen centuries. The church canonized him afterward, fixing his name in the long roll of saints.
