==Viața==
Gregory was born in Rome of his parents Marcellus and Honesta, but the date of his birth is unknown. It may be about 670. At an early age Gregory showed an interest in church affairs. He attended the "school cantorum." He appointed a [[Minor orders|sub-deacon]] and ''sacellarius'' (treasurer) for the [[Church of Rome]] by Pope Sergius I, who reigned from 687 to 701. As a [[deacon]] Gregory accompanied Pope Constantine to Constantinople for his meeting with emperor [[Justinian II]].

After the death of Pope Constantine, Gregory was chosen his successor on [[May 19]], 715. After becoming pope, Gregory instituted a program of rebuilding the walls around Rome, in the face of attacks by the Lombards and fear of raids by the Saracens who were quickly assuming control of the Mediterranean Sea. He encouraged Charles Martel in his labors in the defense of Gaul against the [[Muslim]]s.

He encouraged the preaching of the [[Gospel]] among the Germanic peoples, to whom he sent St. Boniface and St. Corbinian on missions of evangelization. In 722, he [[consecration of a bishop|consecrated]] Boniface a [[bishop]]. He also took the initiative of restoring several Italian [[monastery|monasteries]], notably of [[Monte Cassino]]. Pope Gregory took a stern stand against the iconoclastic edicts of emperor Leo III. He supported Patr. [[Germanus I of Constantinople|Germanus]] of Constantinople in his resistance to Leo, and opposed Patr. Anastasius after he succeeded Germanus. Gregory sent letters to the [[clergy]] throughout the West proclaiming the true doctrine concerning the question of the [[veneration]] of images and warning the people against the teachings of the emperor.

Pope Gregory II died in February 731. The date of his death is not known with accuracy, being remembered in martyrology variously as [[February 11]], [[February 13]], or [[February 28]]. His feast day recognizes the day of his repose as February 11. He was buried in St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome.
