| If you have had anything to do with St. Andrews School in the past 30 years, then you probably know and appreciate Vicki Mealor. She started as a substitute teacher in January of 1990 and within a month she had been hired permanently to teach the Toddler class. From there she went on to serve as an assistant and then lead teacher in the Two-year-old class. After about 10 years in the classroom Vicki became the administrative assistant for the school. When called upon she has stepped in as substitute cook, food purchaser, parakeet keeper, carpool coordinator, and comforter of boo boos. For the past year she has been the school’s assistant director, helping lead through staff transitions and all that operating safely in the midst of a global pandemic has required. St. Andrews School has always been more than a job for Vicki. Her love for the kids, the families, and the staff and her commitment to the mission of the school shines through in all she does. After 30 years of faithful service Vicki is retiring at the close of the calendar year. We will miss her and wish her well as she gets to spend more time on the farm and with her husband, children, and grandchildren. We love you, Vicki! Thanks for everything! |
The Engagement Ministry is planning a s’mores firepit fellowship on Sunday, December 20th at 7:00 pm in the parking lot by Heffner Hall. There will be an option to pick up a s’mores kit to take home, or to stay in the parking lot and make s’mores and have some socially distant fellowship with your church family. There will be an online sign-up coming soon, so we can prepare enough s’mores kits
We are planning an outdoor service for the Longest night on Sunday, December 20th at 6:30 p.m. The Service will be held outside the sanctuary at the All-Saints garden. Through scripture, prayer, silence and candle-lighting ~ as we approach the longest night of the year, we will pause to honor those who struggle and to witness to the light that has come, and is coming into the world. This brief service will create a safe and sacred space to lament and grieve the many losses we’ve experienced in this year and years past. All are welcome. Please bring your own chair and wear a mask. The service will be about 20 minutes in length.
We will have two Christmas Eve Services, premiering on our YouTube channel at 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
5:00 pm Sing carols and hear the Christmas story told by our children, youth, and adults. If you would like to contribute to the prerecorded telling of the Christmas story, contact John McCrosky, john@sapctucker.org.
8:00 pm Celebrate with Word, the Lord’s Supper, music and candlelight. Click here for a printable invitation to share with family, neighbors, or friends.
