St. Andrew, brother of St. Peter, preached the Gospel across many lands, including modern-day Romania. He established churches and converted countless souls to Christianity. Tradition holds that he was crucified in Patras, Greece, on an X-shaped cross. He continued to preach to the very end.

Let us pray to #SaintAndrew, that through his intercessions, we may be granted the strength to spread the Good News and remain steadfast in our #Faith, even in the face of adversity. May his apostolic zeal inspire us to live a life dedicated to #JesusChrist. #OrthodoxChristian #Apostle
