Saturday - Feast of the Apostle Andrew (November 30): "I will make you fishers of people"

Scripture: Matthew 4:18-22 

As he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea;  for they were fishermen. And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."  Immediately they left their nets and followed him.  And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.  Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed him.

Prayer:"Lord Jesus, you have called me personally by name, just as you called your first disciples, Simon, Andrew, James, and John. Fill me with the joy of your Gospel (the good news of the kingdom of heaven) and help me to be a good and faithful witness of your kingdom to all I meet."
