Clad in traditional Christian attire, he holds an open book in his hands, symbolizing his role as one of Jesus' closest disciples and an evangelist spreading the teachings of Christianity. The intricate details carved into the wooden sculpture are truly awe-inspiring. Every fold of fabric on St. Andrew's robe seems to come alive under careful observation, while delicate facial features reveal a sense of devotion and wisdom.

D. , this sacred place has witnessed countless generations seeking solace and spiritual enlightenment.
