St. Andrew(Apostle)

SAINT ANDREWApostle(1st century) St. Andrew was one of the fishermen called by Jesus in Bethsaida. His younger brother was perhaps St. Peter. St. Andrew was also a disciple of John the Baptist. One of St. Andrew's traits was bringing others to notice. When he was called by Christ on the banks of the Jordan, his first act was to search for his brother. "We have found the Messiah," he told St. Peter. It was also St. Andrew who pointed out the boy with five loaves and fishes before Christ fed five thousand in the desert. St. Andrew went to plant the faith in Scythia and Greece, where he gained a martyr's crown. He was scourged in Patræ, Achaia, before being crucified.For two days, he preached and glorified God before dying on the cross. He continues drawing souls to Christ as an intercessor and a mirror of God.
