Saint Andrew is traditionally considered the first disciple of Jesus. He was the younger brother of Saint Peter. The brothers were fishermen. Jesus called them to be his disciples by saying that he would make them "fishers of men." Saint Andrew was originally a disciple of Saint John the Baptist. When John pointed to Jesus and said, "Behold the Lamb of God!" Andrew immediately left John to follow Jesus. He visited in Jesus' home and later brought his brother Simon Peter. Saint Andrew and Saint Peter left everything to follow Jesus. After Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, Saint Andrew the Apostle preached the gospel in areas now known as Turkey, Greece, and Ukraine. Saint Andrew was martyred (executed) by crucifixion in Greece. Because Saint Andrew deemed himself unworthy to be crucified on the same type of cross on which Christ had been crucified, he asked to be tied to an X-shaped cross. The Apostle Andrew did not die right away, but instead he was left to suffer for two days while he continued to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ until he finally died. The "X" shaped cross is known as the Cross of Saint Andrew. His undying faith in a difficult world is an inspiration to all Christians.

“Entering the 250th year of this beautiful and imperfect union, it seems a good time to reflect anew on what it means to be a neighbor, and to remember that neighbor is not just about who lives next door to us. Neighbor and neighborliness is about how we choose to live, how we choose to love, and how we choose to embody Jesus’ command to love your neighbor as yourself. “
