Tradition holds that Saint Andrew, the First-Called Apostle, preached the Gospel in the lands of Scythia, which corresponds to modern-day Romania. He is considered the patron saint of Romania because he is believed to have planted the seeds of Christianity there. Legend says he traveled extensively, facing persecution but spreading the word of Jesus Christ. His missionary work is seen as foundational to the Romanian Orthodox Church, solidifying his status as a central figure of faith and inspiration.

Holy Apostle Andrew, pray to God for us and for all those who seek His grace!
