St. Andrew's Feast Day

Today is the feast day of St. Andrew!

Who was St. Andrew?  Andrew was a fisherman who was minding his business--catching fish--when Jesus called him to follow him.  Andrew, along with his brother Simon Peter, are exemplars of the faith, because they dropped everything they were doing, leaving him and family, to follow Jesus of Nazareth.

The hope and prayer?  May we be like St. Andrew, dropping everything in our hands and go, follow Jesus, casting the net wide in catching people, sharing with them in body, mind, and spirit, the Good News!
