Brother Andre, the former Alfred Bessette, was a 20th century disciple of St. Joseph. He, along with St. Therese, has done more to spread the devotion to St. Joseph, than anyone else. Blessed Brother Andre is associated with hundreds of miracles during, and after his lifetime. If you want St. Joseph's ear, asking Brother Andre is a sure way to get it.

Brother Andre's feastday is the date of his death, January 6th.
