According to Mark and Matthew, Jesus saw Simon and Andrew fishing in Galilee, and commanded them to follow him. He later named Simon, Peter.

Luke follows Mark in its explanation of how Jesus met Peter, but says that Peter was not actually chosen as an apostle until some time later, when Jesus called all his apostles together and chose twelve, one of whom was Peter, to be apostles.

John says that Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist, who told him to follow Jesus. Andrew went and got his brother, Simon Peter, and brought him to Jesus (John 1:35-42).

The answer to this question depends on which source is relied on:

In Mark, Andrew was with Peter. Jesus saw Peter and his brother Andrew together fishing, and called them to follow him.

In Matthew, Jesus once again saw Peter and his brother Andrew together fishing, and called them to follow him.

In Luke, Jesus met Simon Peter in his mother's house, but did not call him at that stage. Later, he helped some fishermen in a boat - James and John, sons of Zebedee, and Simon Peter. Jesus told Peter that he would follow Jesus, so the three left their boat and followed Jesus.

In John's Gospel, Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist. John told him and another disciple to follow Jesus. Later, Andrew fetched his brother Simon Peter to join the other disciples.

Peter, along with his brother Andrew were fishermen on the Sea of Galilee at the time they first met Jesus. Andrew had been a disciple of John the Baptist and John had told him to follow Jesus. Andrew, in turn, told Peter about Jesus.

Peter and Jesus first met when introduced by Andrew, Peter's brother. We know that Peter was washing his fishing nets when he was called by Jesus at a later time.
