Andrew the 'First-Called' Apostle followed Jesus after John the Baptist identified him as the Lamb of God, then found his brother Peter and brought him to Christ. Tradition holds he preached in Greece and Scythia before being crucified on an X-shaped cross in Patras, having asked to be bound rather than nailed, deeming himself unworthy of Christ's cross.
