Today we celebrate Saint Andreas and wish all those who were given his name a very happy Name Day and Xronia Polla.

Did you know? Saint Andrew was the brother of Saint Peter and is regarded as the first of the twelve apostles. He was a disciple of John the Baptist who had followed Jesus on John's recommendation. Like Jesus, Andrew died a martyr in the city of Patras of Achaia, Greece, where he was crucified on a cross in the shape of an "X", the first letter of ‘Christ’, this cross is also the symbol of Saint Andrew.
