Saint Andrew (1st century)
for November 30
Matthew tells us that Andrew was a fisherman, along with his brother Peter. In the Gospel of John, we learn that Andrew was also a disciple of John the Baptist (see 1:40). With John the Baptist, Andrew was waiting for the arrival of the Messiah. And now here was Jesus, inviting Andrew to follow him. Andrew’s hope had come true.
