St. Andrew Comments
Andrew, like his brother Simon Peter, was a fisherman. He became a disciple of the great St. John the Baptist, but when John pointed to Jesus and said, "Behold the Lamb of God!" Andrew understood that Jesus was greater. At once he left John to follow the Divine Master. Jesus knew that Andrew was walking behind him, and turning back, he asked, "what do you seek?" When Andrew answered that he would like to know where Jesus lived, Our Lord ... Continue Reading

Many people asked for Messiah when St. Andrew were in the flesh. Therefore, he followed Jesus Crist. Jesus healed many sufferers so that St. Andrew might well consider him as Messiah. Many European are longing for St. Andrew to this day. This fact is new one for me becuase I am Japanese, far east nation. Cathlic Online, thanks. I acknowledge for big news to me. God bless you!
St Andrew intervene through your divine acts that you pray for us through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Saint Andrew, my namesake, kindly in your mercy and through your intercession ask the lord Jesus to hear my prayer that the Lord brings love, caring, faithfulness, and prayerfulness in my family and further that Zimbabwe conducts free and fair elections after concluding the constitutional- making process. May Zimbabwe be blessed with a leader who loves and respect his people regardless of political affiliation and believes in God our Father
St. Andrew's life is interesting....!
Two days tied to the cross, inspire us to suffer for Christ.
St. Andrew, Apostle and martyr, brother of Peter, I'm delighted that today is your feast day. Through God's calling you followed Jesus and was inspired to love Him immediately. You are truIy blessed. How foolish are those who receive scantifying grace in Baptism and lose Him in life!
I too remember my trips to the Amalfi Coast in South western Italy, going up the stairs and praying at the great altar of the church dedicated to your name. I was clearly impressed that there were many foreign, negative and rival influences on the Catholic church of this region, that had to fight wars to ward off invasion. St. Andrew as you did then, please pray for the pilgrim church on earth, for divine protection.
Refresh me when I'm tired, give me patience when provoked. Bless my students to produce exciting and engaging written work and debate, Grant me ingenuity in performing their tasks. Thank you dear Jesus, for the success of my yearbook publication. I dedicate this year's work to you. Mother Mary pray for all bedridden, vulnerable persons, the sick and the suffering to have the care that they need. Bless care-givers too. May they be dedicated to the ones they care for. Amen.

We are unaware of this illness I would like to ask Saint Andrew and Saint Joseph through prayers to help cure me. I have a statue which is marked Brother Andrew, a medle of Saint Joseph and Oil of Saint Joseph. I truly believe in miracles and I am aslo aware aware since I am a bliever this may take a little longer than a non believer. I believe, have faith trust I will hear from Saint Andre. I am also very delighted Saint Andrew has been recognized as a saint.

I would like to receive the emails about St. Andrew. Did he perform miracles?
Kindly send me a prayer for my patron st. Andrea God bless you
i learn so much from your daily emails. i've been reading the gospels all my life but didn't realize that andrew was the first disciple or that he was martyred in greece.
St Andrew to me is a great saint since he was first to recognize Jesus as the Christ. Interesting fact is he brought Peter to Christ (foundation of the Roman Catholic Church). My daily prayer to St Andrew's intercession is: St Andrew help lead our Protestant brothers and sisters to the true church. I thank him for the Anglican Bishops that renounced their protest and returned to St Peter's chair. He is the patron of many eastern churches, may they too one day recognize St Peter's authority as leader of the one holy catholic apostolic Church.
St Andrew pray for us that we may be one in Christ's true church.
