If you haven’t signed your child up for the new worship arts program, please show up at 5:00 in the sanctuary.  We will have applications and the programs are free.  Creative movement/dance starts at 5:00 and then we transition to choir with David Lukens at 5:30.  Right after that parents can pick up their kids for a picnic and lawn games for our WOW program.

We already have a good group signed up and ready to start moving and singing for the Glory of God.  We can’t wait for this joyful group to bring their gifts to our Worship service.

St. Andrews offers Sunday School and Christian Education for all ages.  Visit our Sunday School page to find our the different offerings and see what seems a good fit for you.

Sunday School

Wednesday, September 10th, at 6 p.m. will be the kick off for our WOW (What’s on Wednesday) program.  We will be meeting twice a month on the second and fourth Wednesdays  celebrating our church family, gathering as an intergenerational community to learn, fellowship, laugh and strengthen the ties that bind.  Our WOW kickoff will be a picnic, complete with lawn games for all.  Please bring a dish to share as well as any lawn games to play.

We officially launched our new hymnal in Sunday’s worship service.  There was lots of singing, a Litany of Dedication and lots of messages about the inspiration of song in our faith lives.  Stay tuned for all the ways Glory to God will be part of our Worship in the coming years.

If you want a copy of the retiring Presbyterian Hymnal or the Rainbow Book, stop by the church office between 9 – 1, Monday through Friday to pick one up from the work room.

Help the Deacons update the church directory for our anticipated new pastor.  Please come by the Deacons’ table at the Church Family meeting on August 24, to confirm that your information is up-to-date.  You can update your photos in the directory by emailing the chair of the deacons c/o office@standrewspresbyterian.org or leave a copy of the photo in the Deacons’ mailbox in the church office.We need some volunteer photographers for the meeting in case anyone is photo ready Sunday.
