This is the movement of the Holy Family.

So welcome to our Rosary meditation.

I'm blessed this evening to be with my wife Sandy,

but with the prayer warriors at the Browns or the great group of people gathered.

So let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

And let's call to mind all those that we've promised to pray for.

We're praying this rosary especially for Linda Baleski, who thanks me to God just became Catholic and she is drawing ever close to entering heaven.

So we are praying for her as she journeys closer to heaven.

But we're gonna cut a deal with Linda

that as soon as she enters heaven,

she has to pray for us.

So, Linda, do we have a deal?

Now, today is the Feast of St Andrew.

Andrew was the brother of St. Andrew. Peter.

They were both from the Seda on the Sea of Galilee, fishermen by trade.

Andrew was a seeker of truth and he had a longing for God which led him to become a disciple of John the Baptist who upon seeing Jesus said to Andrew behold the Lamb of God. Hearing this, Andrew followed Jesus who called him to be an

apostle and for this reason Andrew has the distinct title to be the first called. He was the first apostle who was called.

Early the next morning Andrew met his brother Peter and said to him,

we found the Messiah, which means to Christ.

And he took Peter to meet Jesus.

So not only was Andrew, first one called, Andrew was the one who

introduced the first Pope to Jesus. How'd you like to have that for a distinction?
