St. Andrew, brother of St. Peter, preached the Gospel across many lands, including modern-day Romania. Tradition holds that he established the first Christian communities there, blessing the land that would become deeply rooted in Orthodox faith. He faced much persecution, ultimately being crucified in Patras, Greece, on an X-shaped cross.

Let us pray to #SaintAndrew, that he may intercede for us, guiding us to spread the Good News and remain steadfast in our #faith. May his example inspire us to live a life dedicated to #JesusChrist and service to others.
