SAINT ANDREW

 

 

 

 

SAINT ANDREW

 

 

Before Jesus

There was John

Andrew was a disciple of John

 

One day

Jesus was walking

Beside the Sea of Galilee

He saw two brothers

Who were fishermen

And he said to them,

 

“Come follow me

And I will make you fishers of men”

 

They immediately

Laid down their polls

And decided

To follow this mysterious man

 

Later on

Andrew was the one

Who found the little boy

With the two fish

And the five barley loaves

 

And immediately

A miracle was done

 

After Jesus’ Resurrection

We don’t know where

But we know

He preached God’s word

Wherever he could

 

Today

There are many churches

Named in his honor

And he is

The patron Saint of Scotland and Russia

 

Tradition states

If you say a certain prayer

Between today and Christmas                                      ( 15 times )

A miracle may be possible

 

Today, November 30^th, is his feast day

 

I was baptized

At Saint Andrew’s Catholic Church

In Pittsburgh, Pa.

February 6^th, 1955---my mom and Dad’s first anniversary
