Feliz Ano Nueva

Thank You to all who sang, rang, played, directed, supported, and encouraged the making of music to the glory of God in the joyous season of Christmas. Your time, effort, and dedication were an offering to the Lord and a gift to the people at Saint Andrews Thank you to all who brought cookies for the Christmas Cookie Celebration after Lessons and Carols. Your cookies were delicious and enjoyed by all! The remaining cookies were gathered and sorted into the lovely tins you donated. When all was said and done, we delivered more than 114 dozen cookies and toiletries to several area agencies. You made it possible to share some joy with those in our community. Soli Deo gloria.

Many thanks to all who teach our children, youth, and adult classes every Sunday. We will resume Sunday School classes on January 6.
