St. Andrew, brother of St. Peter, first-called Apostle of Jesus! He preached in lands from modern-day Ukraine to Greece, establishing churches and converting many. Tradition says he was crucified on an X-shaped cross in Patras, Greece, for his unwavering faith.

O #ApostleAndrew, pray to God for us, that we may be steadfast in our beliefs and spread the Gospel with courage! #SaintAndrew #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Faith
