In this reading from the Revelations, Jesus is coming in his
glory. Everyone will see him. He will reign forever and ever.
He is the Lord, the Almighty.
Second Reading: Galatians 3:15 - 22 (Lebanese):
St. Paul explains that when people agree on a matter, no one
can break it or add anything to it. The law was added in order
to show what wrongdoing is, and it was meant to last until the
coming of Abraham's descendant.

St. Andrew (First Century - Apostle)
November 30
St. Andrew came from Bethsaida, a town in Galilee on the Lake
of Genesareth. He became a disciple of St. John the Baptist,
who sent him to see Jesus. After visiting the Lord, Andrew called
his brother, Simon Peter, to come and meet the Messiah. Later,
as Jesus was walking along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Peter and
Andrew casting their nets into the sea. Jesus said, "Follow
me and I will make you fishers of men." Andrew accompanied
Jesus throughout his public ministry, and his name appears in
the story of the feeding of five thousand in the desert. After
the death of Christ, he labored as a missionary in Scythia, Greece
and Turkey and established the Church at Constantinople. He was
crucified on an X-shaped cross at Patras, Acaia. St. Andrew is
the patron saint of Russia and Scotland.
I bow before the Cross made precious by Christ, my master. I
embrace it as his disciple. "St. Andrew."
