Life

Saint Andrew was a fisherman and the first apostle called by Jesus, and the brother of Saint Peter. Originally a disciple of John the Baptist, he introduced his brother Peter to Jesus. Tradition holds that he preached in Greece and was martyred in Patras on an X-shaped cross, now known as Saint Andrew’s Cross.
