SAINT ANDREW THE APOSTLE PARISH Prayer to Saint Andrew the Apostle O Glorious Saint Andrew, you were the first to recognize and follow the Lamb of God. With your friend Saint John, you remained with Jesus for that day, for your entire life, and now throughout eternity. As you led your brother Saint Peter to Christ and many others after Him, draw us also to Him. Teach us to lead others to Christ solely out of love for Him and dedication in His service. Help us to learn the lesson of the cross and to carry our daily crosses without complaint so that they may carry us to Jesus. Amen. OCTOBER 18, 2020 - 29TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME ST.
