St. Andrew, brother of St. Peter, preached the Gospel across lands, from the shores of the Black Sea to Greece. He healed the sick and converted many, facing persecution with unwavering faith. In Patras, Greece, he was crucified upside down, bound to an X-shaped cross, from which he continued to preach for three days. His martyrdom became a testament to his devotion. Let us pray to St. Andrew, that we too may find the courage to spread Christ's love, even in adversity.
