ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN OCTOBER
Saints celebrated on the 17th of October
SAINT ANDREW OF CRETE, MARTYR
Today, we also commemorate Saint Andrew. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Constantinople, during the reign of Constantine Copronymus, Saint Andrew of Crete, a monk, who was often scourged for the veneration of holy images, and finally, after having one of his feet cut off, breathed his last."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saint Andrew may increase our devotion and promote our salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
