Morning Prayer - WEDNESDAY, 30 Nov 2022

LISTEN | Morning Prayer - November 30, 2022 | Feast of St. Andrew, Apostle

"Come after me, says the Lord, and I will make you fishers of men." - Mt. 4:19

Today the Church celebrates the Feast of St. Andrew the Apostle, a native of Bethsaida in Galilee, a fisherman by trade, and a former disciple of John the Baptist. He was the one who introduced his brother Peter to Jesus, saying, "We have found the Messiah." Overshadowed henceforth by his brother, Andrew nevertheless appears again in the Gospels as introducing souls to Christ. After Pentecost, Andrew took up the apostolate on a much wider scale, and is said to have been martyred at Patras in southern Greece on a cross which was in the form of an "X". This type of cross has long been known as "St. Andrew's cross."

St. Andrew, apostle, pray for us!
