Andrew the First-Called

Andrew was a fisherman from Bethsaida in Galilee. He was the first disciple called by Jesus to follow Him — earning him the title Protokletos, “the First-Called.”

Before following Jesus, Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist. When John pointed to Jesus and said “Behold, the Lamb of God,” Andrew immediately followed. His first act was to find his brother Simon Peter and bring him to Christ.

Andrew’s name comes from the Greek Andreas, meaning “manly” or “courageous.” He is the patron saint of fishermen, singers, and those who bear witness.

Throughout the Gospels, Andrew is the one who brings people to Jesus. He brought the boy with five loaves and two fish (John 6:8–9). He brought the Greeks who wished to see Jesus (John 12:20–22). His ministry was always about connection — bridging the gap between people and Christ.

According to tradition, Andrew was martyred on an X-shaped cross, now known as the Saltire or St. Andrew’s Cross. He reportedly said he was not worthy to die on the same shape of cross as his Lord.

Like Andrew, the men of this table are called to bring others to Jesus — starting with each other.

What is the Walk to Emmaus?

The Walk to Emmaus is a spiritual retreat modeled on the Early Church experience described in Acts 2:42–47. It takes its name from the road to Emmaus in Luke 24, where two disciples walked with the risen Christ and their hearts burned within them as He opened the Scriptures.

During the Walk, pilgrims are placed at tables by divine appointment — not by choice. Over three days, they experience talks, worship, communion, and profound fellowship — surrounded by a community of believers devoted to prayer and service.

Pilgrims leave transformed — not by program or method, but by the overwhelming, tangible presence of God’s agape love. The experience is something that must be lived to be understood.

The Walk to Emmaus is how we should feel every Sunday — the Christian life modeled on the Early Church from 33 AD to 325 AD.
