St. Andrews offers many opportunities for renewing our minds. We’ll highlight many of them as we kick off our new year of Faith Formation at Rally Day, September 8th at 8:45 a.m. in the Youth Room. We’ll share our fall plans for the Saturday study group, Closer Walk, our Sunday classes for children, and our three adult Sunday options: the Fidelis class, Sunday Morning Together, and the afternoon Revelation Class. We’ll also highlight a variety of ministry activities where you can grow as a disciple through service, including Missions, Caring for Creation and Clifton Ministries, among others.

Rally Day begins with a light breakfast of coffee, juice and pastries. Come and be encouraged in your Christian growth as you hear all that’s available to you at St. Andrews.

Have you been visiting St. Andrews, and would you like to learn a little more about SAPC? Join us Sunday, September 8th in the Meeting Room after worship for a brief time to ask questions and speak with our pastor, Rev. Dr. Camille.

We had the best time at our carnival on August 10th and all the families and kids that attended did too! It takes a lot of work and organization, but we always love this day. We had 61 volunteers and 339 guests at the carnival this year! We want to thank the members and staff of St. Andrews, who volunteered, organized, and ran the carnival!

Many thanks also go out to all of the community groups that came to volunteer: the Scouts, the Kiwanis Club, Tucker High School’s Beta Club, Key Club, and Honor Society, Lifeline Animal Project, the DeKalb Fire Department, Building Families, and St. Andrews School. It was a great day!
